National Disaster Preparation Month

Sep 1, 2011

Nationwide, through the month of September, we are reminded of the importance of being prepared for disasters. Disasters can strike at anytime. Proper preparation and response can literally mean the difference between life and death.

The Extension Disaster Education Network strives to reduce the impact of disasters through education. The topics and resources on this site are extensive. Some of the resources are available in Spanish.

In addition to online resources course materials, including PowerPoint presentations, are available for use at no cost.

Why not spend a few minutes today and take a step towards better disaster preparation at your home or workplace? Odds are it will be time well spent.
