Institute for Childhood Preparedness

Welcome to the Institute for Childhood Preparedness Online Training Courses! We're so happy you're here.

The Institute For Childhood Preparedness was founded by Andrew Roszak, JD, MPA, EMT-P in August 2018. Andrew founded the Institute to help early childcare professionals prepare for, respond to and recover from natural disasters and emergencies.

Children are the most vulnerable population in the United States, and 61% of children under the age of 5 spend time in a childcare setting. The needs of the early childhood community are very specific, that’s what compelled Andrew to start the Institute For Childhood Preparedness.
