Please join us tonight, April 13th at 6pm MT for a Smoke Preparedness Webinar with guest speaker Ali Lerch. Through this interview-style, 1-hour webinar we will open up a conversation with our speaker about the health effects of smoke, differences between prescribed fire and wildfire smoke, and some resources to prepare you and your family for wildfire smoke during the upcoming fire season. The webinar will take place on Facebook live and will be streaming from the FACNM Facebook as well as partner Facebook pages.
Our guest speaker, Ali Lerch, has diverse experience as a wildfire mitigation specialist, community outreach coordinator, wildfire mitigation program manager, and the host of the Fire Adapted Communities smoke learning group. Currently, Ali works as a wildfire program manager with the non-profit organization Coalitions in Collaboratives and resides in Salida, Colorado.
This event is part of a broader interagency campaign to promote wildfire preparedness in 2021, centering around the theme “Wildfire Preparedness is Year-Round."
