The Dedicated Heroes committed to Emergency Preparedness!
The Team Saving Lives:
Emergencies can happen suddenly, from natural disasters and technology failures to manufactured crises such as explosions or bomb threats. Having the knowledge and skills to respond quickly to these situations is vital. Being prepared can help protect everyone from harm. Being prepared is not just wise; it's essential.
Most Police Departments offer a variety of self-protection training programs to community members and security personnel, including training to cope with an emergency and immediately respond to calls for help from the community.
The skills gained in these programs prove valuable in protecting yourself and others during an emergency.
StormReady is a national initiative that helps communities improve the safety of their citizens during severe weather. It promotes an approach that encourages local authorities to enhance their hazardous weather response operations.
