Preparedness Works Better With Neighbors

Introduce yourself before a crisis. Learn who may need help, who has relevant training, and how the block will share verified information without exposing private details.

Start with small agreements

Choose a check-in method, exchange only necessary contact information, and identify safe gathering points. Do not assume someone wants assistance—ask.

Connect locally

Community emergency response training, volunteer groups, and local public-safety programs provide structure and realistic practice.
