The Urban Assembly School for Emergency Management

The Urban Assembly School for Emergency Management (UASEM) provides students with real-world learning opportunities. Students at UASEM have the unique opportunity to participate in career-related courses, internships, and emergency simulations with our partners Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), American Red Cross, Department of Homeland Security, and more. With our partners, we develop curricula and activities in Emergency Management that create a sense of personal responsibility and empowerment among our students, parents, and staff. Students will develop leadership skills, learn how to use mapping and emergency response software as well as CPR, and learn how to recognize and respond to hazardous materials, among other abilities.
