This presentation will review the development of and information contained in the State of Texas Functional Needs Support Services Toolkit. We will also discuss next steps for Texas Disability Integration and projects in emergency management. This kit provides planning guidance to local emergency management and shelter planners and can be incorporated into existing shelter plans to meet access and functional needs in general population shelters. This toolkit provides guidance to assist planners in understanding the requirements related to sheltering children and adults with and without disabilities who have access and functional needs in the State of Texas.
