After a major disaster, it is unlikely that emergency response services will be able to immediately respond to everyone’s needs so it’s important to be prepared to take care of yourself, family, and neighbors. Please read through the Emergency Preparedness Guide to learn how to prepare your household in the event of an emergency.
