Why Crisis Management is Important | Amanda Flowers Peterson | TEDxRedding

Amanda Flowers Peterson grew up in adversity, experienced personal crisis, and for the past decade has devoted her efforts to helping others manage the inevitable crises of life.
In this 10 minute talk, she shares why crisis management should be a community service and how you can help.
Amanda Flowers Peterson grew up in adversity. An abusive home, racial bullying, and losing her best friend to suicide are only a few of the examples she uses to express what she’s had to overcome. She founded Zion Crisis Navigational Services to provide to the community the basic help that she did not have, but so desperately needed in the midst of her own crises.
While Amanda sought help to heal from her past, she deeply studied and learned about the services out there to help others like herself. Learning the ins and outs of the non-profits, government systems, and programs that many times failed her is how she became the person she now believes everyone deserves - an advocate.
With over ten years’ experience in advocacy and activism, she also spends time giving back to the community as a Shasta County Brave Faces speaker/advocate and serving as a Connect Pastor for Bethel Church, specializing in supporting crisis solutions.
