This week is Emergency Preparedness Week (May 2 -8), a nationwide event that encourages Canadians to take action to better prepare and protect themselves and their families during emergencies.

Are you prepared?
Take these steps to be ready at home:
• Learn how to prepare
• Plan for what to do
• Train and practice
• Organize supplies and equipment
• Secure building contents from earthquake shaking
• Protect your home from damage
• Safeguard finances

“The strongest influence that motivates people to prepare for disasters is other people in their lives. If you have taken steps to prepare for a natural disaster, please encourage your friends, relatives, and neighbours to do the same,” says Shaun Koopman, SRD protective services coordinator. “You could make a world of difference by spreading the word about what you’ve done to be ready in the event of emergency.”
