The Summit will include a panel on HIPAA, FERPA and matters of privacy; a discussion of how to talk about death in a public when the worst happens; and the role of social media in public information. NCPA General Counsel Amanda Martin will be on the HIPAA/FERPA panel. The luncheon keynote speaker will be Elaney Katsafanas, Emergency Management Planner for Charlotte-Mecklenburg Management and Charlotte Fire Department.
