12:00 pm – 1:00 pm

The MMA will host a webinar on Sept. 16 with the American Red Cross of Massachusetts to explore how municipalities can work with the Massachusetts chapter and to offer examples of the support the Red Cross can provide when a community needs it most.

Three regional executive directors will join the webinar to provide information related to their region.

Every eight minutes, the Red Cross responds to a disaster to offer care, comfort, financial support and relief, according to the organization’s website. The Red Cross also runs training and certification programs, blood drives, the largest food pantry in New England, services to the armed forces, and more.

Webinar speakers will include:

  • Holly Grant, CEO, American Red Cross, Massachusetts
  • Barbara Cotton, executive director, Red Cross Southeastern Massachusetts Chapter
  • Kyle McWilliam-Lopez, executive director, Red Cross Northeastern Massachusetts Chapter
  • Nia Rennix, executive director, Red Cross Central-Western Massachusetts Chapter

Online registration is available for the 60-minute webinar, which will begin at noon. Only MMA members may register. MMA members include elected officials and municipal employees from MMA member communities across the state. Media members are not permitted to attend.
