The American Red Cross Prepare Out Loud presentation will empower you to be ready for disasters of all kinds (including a Cascadia earthquake) by taking practical steps to start preparing, being vocal about your preparedness and encouraging others to start preparing.
“ Prepare Out Loud acknowledges that becoming prepared is not easy and won’t happen overnight, but taking small steps to learn about the hazards in our community, available resources and assessing individual and family needs during a disaster is within everyone’s reach. I believe each person that experiences Prepare Out Loud brings us closer to building a sustainable, state-wide culture of preparedness.”
– Andrew J. Phelps | Director, Oregon Office of Emergency Management
“ The Prepare Out Loud presentation is an absolute eye opener! You will learn about different types of earthquakes and understand their potential impact. You will learn the steps you must take to plan ahead and what to do when an earthquake occurs. It motivated me to complete my own personal planning and preparation. Be ‘prepared’ for an engaging and informative session. Don’t miss it!”
– Louisa Awbery | Fred Meyer
