Free Emergency Preparedness workshop led by the City’s Office of Emergency Management, at the Southwest Library:

When a large disaster happens, first responders and other city services may be overwhelmed. Transportation may be disrupted and communication may be difficult. It is vital that city residents are prepared to be self-sufficient during these times. Having knowledge of some key disaster skills is a crucial part of that preparedness effort.

This workshop provides training on fire extinguisher use and utility control. Both of these are key skills that may be needed after a disaster.

Registration is required. Please register here.
