In the statement "The National Incident Management Systems (NIMS), the Incident Command Systems (ICS), and the Emergency Management Assistance Compact are three standards considered to be among the most essential in the industry" (Crayton, 2022), which is most certainly correct. Alongside each of the following, there is also the practices of All-Hazards Planning.

Now in the case of planning for All-Hazard, is this to be a key possibility or simply a good effort? In this case, can a locality truly plan for All Hazards, or simply for those that they are most likely to experience?

Why has compliance switched to the Whole Community Approach as compared to All Hazards? What might we have learned that attributed to the shift in paradigms from All Hazards to the Whole Community?
