The Association of State and Territorial Health Officials (ASTHO) convened its Mission Ready Packages Advisory Group May 20-21 in Arlington, VA. The purpose of the meeting was to conduct a detailed review of ten public health response mission ready packages that could be offered through the Emergency Management Assistance Compact. The packages reviewed dealt with the areas of mental heath services, mass fatality response, and medical and clinical support. Following revisions based off the feedback provided, the plan is to gather additional support through ASTHO and NACCHO advisory groups.
