Disasters can strike anywhere at any time. September is National Preparedness Month, the perfect time to get ready for emergencies big and small. Becoming “Red Cross Ready” means following simple steps in advance to ensure you can weather a crisis safely and comfortably. Being prepared may not prevent a disaster, but it will give you confidence to meet the challenge.
The American Red Cross Southern California Region is offering free virtual preparedness presentations throughout the month of September. All presentations are free and open to the public and will be hosted on Zoom:
