  15. Community Hub Program Milestones Update

  16. Community Hub Library Partnership • Formalized partnership with San Francisco Public Libraries to function as community disaster hubs • Determined two libraries to participate as ‘pilot’ hubs: • Sunset Branch • Bayview Hunters Point Branch • Conducting discussion forums with Branch Managers to collaboratively develop strategies to initiate and maintain a community hub at a library branch • Activating community hub during ShakeOut (first pilot launch/rollout exercise)

  17. Community Hub Proactive Partnerships • Solidify strategic partnerships (along with Libraries but outside of Library partnership scope) to advance community hub program • Cultivate community-tailored community hub planning initiatives (no one community the same; DEM focusing on the assets and needs of individual communities to support development of most effective community-specific hub) • Identify proactive opportunities to advance Community Hub Program (Big Rumble events, community events, etc.)

  18. Next Steps • Develop comprehensive GIS map of community hub ‘assets’ (community centers, places of worship, etc.) in all 11 ‘Hub Districts’ • Work with retailers and private sector to develop strategic partnerships for sharing/collaborating potential assets • Develop community hub operations based on collaboration with strategic partners (Libraries; neighborhood/community organizations)

  19. Inspiring a Preparedness MovementCulture of Preparedness Strategic Communications

  20. Conceptual vs Instructional Messages • A conceptual/strategic message is the underlying theme that inspires target audience to seek out technical/instruction information and resources • The instructional/directive message is the message that directs target audience to specific actions (e.g., drop, cover and hold during an earthquake)

  21. How the Conceptual Message Supports the Instructional Message • The conceptual message is designed to provide context with subtle, subliminal cues • The conceptual message is designed to inspire audiences to seek out the instructional message • The conceptual message links the values of the audience with the objectives of preparedness • Good news: Preparedness resources exist! Once conceptual message is heard, audience is ready to hear instructional message

  22. The Conceptual Message is the Core Message of the Strategy • The overarching, core message (essence of how preparedness messages are framed and delivered) is that preparedness is one more element of overall well being • Sub derivatives of the core message include: • Preparedness is a continuation of the sense of peace that comes from knowing you are taking care of yourself and those whom you care about • When one is prepared, one is connected, empowered and possesses knowledge • San Francisco prepares as a cultural value because San Franciscan’s love San Francisco—and the kind of life one gets to live here • Along with preparing as a cultural value is the act of sharing what we treasure and value about San Francisco, and how we protect it • We all have something we value in our worlds and we have the capability take the steps to prep our worlds

  23. Communication Approaches to Deliver the Message • Social Media Approach (San Francisco DEM Facebook and Prep SF because It Rocks Facebook page) • Grassroots Approach • Viral (Un-branding/Underground) Approach • Societal Visual Cues Approach Strategic Partnerships Approach • Influential Messengers (Celebrity Spokespersons; Trusted Community Leaders) Approach • Self-organizing Community Engagement Approach • Pro-active Community Engagement Approach • Leveraging Annual Preparedness Events (Big Rumble; Shake Out; National Preparedness Month; California EQ Preparedness Month; Earthquake Commemorative Anniversaries) Approach

  24. Your Role in the Strategy? • Continue with your programmatic goals and objectives (business as usual) • BUT, think about how you approach talking about and promoting preparedness • Use the core message to frame your thoughts, words, e-mails, presentations (any modes of communicating!)

  25. How to Tailor the Core Message • Tailor to your audience • Know your audience • Understand their concerns/issues/agendas • How does your target audience engage (methods of message delivery)? • Identify stakeholders early in the communication process • Anticipate stakeholder questions and concerns before they are raised • Develop key messages and supporting information within a clear, concise, transparent, and accessible framework
