Preparing Your Community For a Disaster
Recent disasters have shown just how much communities count on their firefighters and other first responders to keep them safe and protected. But they have also revealed the strains placed on our emergency personnel during times of crisis. Today, more than ever, first responders and local residents must work together to prepare their cities and towns for disaster.
See emergency evacuation tips for people with disabilities .
For firefighters that means reaching out to members of their communities with essential safety information. To aid in this life-saving work, NFPA has developed a comprehensive guide for fire departments. The goal is simple: to give firefighters and other first responders the tools they need to help local residents prepare for disaster — before disaster strikes.
Expert advice and training tools
The Get Ready guide offers everything you need to get started, from easy-to-follow training tips to helpful hints on raising money for your safety programs. You’ll find a detailed lesson plan along with training tips, and evaluation ideas. In addition to the guide, there is a PowerPoint presentation to use during your trainings, as well as handouts, including disaster preparation tips for special audiences and fact sheets on what to do before, during, and after a disaster.
