Systemwide Emergency Management and Business Continuity

UC takes a comprehensive approach to prevent, mitigate, prepare for, respond to, and recover from any adverse event or disruption, including all types of emergencies and disasters. The goal is to create a disaster-resistant and disaster-resilient institution with effective crisis and consequence management capability.

Risk Services provides strategic guidance, leadership, oversight, and systemwide coordination of personnel and resources in support of UC emergency management and continuity planning programs.
