PROGRAMS

NCAPER's programs are designed to help artists and arts organizations prepare for, respond to, and recover from disasters. They also aim to build resilience and capacity in the arts and culture sector.

 

Crisis Analysis and Mitigation Coaches (CAM) and State/Local Activation Teams (SLAT)

With support from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, the National Coalition of Arts’ Preparedness & Emergency Response (NCAPER) is developing the Crisis Analysis & Mitigation (CAM) Coaching Program for Arts Responders. Arts responders are trained by AIR Institute to coach distressed communities in developing or expanding mitigation efforts using the arts and creativity. Rather than waiting for another disaster to occur, NCAPER’s CAM network coaches will be able to work with affected communities as part of the mitigation process to be better prepared for the next disaster.


Ultimately, CAM coaches will be key members of State/Local Activation Teams (SLAT), a future NCAPER program to create a national network of arts responders. When a crisis occurs, knowledgeable arts leaders at the local and state level can immediately respond to those impacted.

Performing Arts Readiness

Performing arts organizations are especially vulnerable to disasters and emergencies, which can damage an organization’s business operations and artistic legacy. The Performing Arts Readiness (PAR) project supports various programs to increase knowledge and the ability to perform arts organizations to create and execute emergency recovery plans, including free webinars, conference presentations, and tools to help build the field’s capacity for disaster preparedness. Many of PAR’s offerings are relevant to arts organizations of any discipline. NCAPER and PAR serve on one another’s Steering Committees.
