National Preparedness Month

National Preparedness Month serves as a reminder to take action to prepare, now and throughout the year, for the types of emergencies that could affect us where we live, work, learn and worship.

This September, National Preparedness Month will focus on planning, with an overarching theme "Disasters Happen. Prepare Now. Learn How."
