RantWoman is not tweeting herself but also not seeing any combinations of #NPM2013 and #disability or #accessibility on the tweet stream she samples. RantWoman notes this point without further analysis at the moment.
RantWoman recommends this nice, fairly comprehensive item from http://ready.gov about people with disabilities and #preparedness:

Important messages:
Candor: guess what, they ain't particularly coming to rescue you.
Guess what: if you have a lot of special needs during regular life, you have even more to prepare about for disasters too.
RantWoman can attest from listening to different people tell their stories, asking one's providers and taking advantage of info one's providers offer makes a difference about #accessibility and relevance.
#Preparedness is always a community, network effort and always a moving target but doing SOMETHING matters.
Captioned by default; yeah to the #preparedness staff person who, judging by speech pattern, is probably deaf but signs and speaks at the same time for one segment. RantWoman missed until her most recent viewing that the video includes both captions and simultaneous ASL interpretation!
