Cities Readiness Initiative (CRI) is a federally funded nationwide project that focuses on enhancing preparedness in counties and major metropolitan statistical areas. Through CRI, state and large metropolitan county health departments develop plans for delivering medical countermeasures to respond to a large-scale bioterrorist event within 48 hours. The Bureau of Preparedness and Response works with county health departments to provide technical assistance and review plans for receiving, distributing, and dispensing of countermeasures. The level of preparedness is measured through regular assessments.
Cities Readiness Initiative Resource Toolkit
This toolkit is designed to assist county health department planners and other community partners with Strategic National Stockpile (SNS) and medical countermeasure planning. The sharing of tools, resources, and successful practices can help counties establish, sustain, evaluate, and enhance local projects.
For more information on Florida's Program, see the CRI Program Fact Sheet.
