Comms Surgery September 2023

Have you ever wondered how you would handle a multi-jurisdictional incident where there is significant national and international attention? We are incredibly excited to announce that we have confirmed our panelists for this special Comms Surgery edition. We will be joined by Katherine Ho, the Houston Regional Director of the Office of Foreign Missions, and Nicole Deaner, Diplomatic Security (DS) Public Affairs Director. Along with Bexar County Assistant PIO Tom Peine, they will be on hand to answer questions about any comms issues that involve foreign agencies and media. This is a fantastic opportunity to access resources and learn where you can get support if you're ever called upon to be the PIO in an international event. Tom was responsible for the public response of the Medical Examiner’s Office during the Quintana Road incident in San Antonio that resulted in the death of 53 migrants.
