Publication Discusses Relationship Between Emergency Management and Homeland Security
Now in its third year of publication, the Journal of Homeland Security and Emergency Management (JHSEM) is a quarterly, electronic journal that features original, innovative, and timely articles and other information describing research or practice. Its intent is to provide quality content in the realm of homeland security and to discuss the relationships between emergency management (for natural, technological and industrial, and terrorism events), as currently understood and conducted, and the new field of homeland security. JHSEM has a 13-person Editorial Board, composed of internationally recognized scholars and practitioners; four assistant editors; and a database of about 120 peer reviewers with a wide range of specialties.
JHSEM provides information and insights on homeland security and emergency management from a broad array of professions, including engineering; political science/public administration/ policy analysis; decision science; and health and medical. Each issue contains peer-reviewed articles, news from the field and communiqués, and also book reviews. It is one of the top sources of new research and information in the fields of homeland security and emergency management and is a pre-eminent independent journal in its field.

Teachers and staff are frequently the initial responders to an emergency situation. In particular, students tend to view teachers as role models and leaders by their students. In an emergency situation students will likely follow the advice of their teachers and other adults. Yet very few of these initial responders have any formal training in emergency response. Douglas Henderson, FSA, CBCP examines this issue.
