Ready New York
Ready New York is a free two-hour event dedicated to preparing individuals and families for emergencies. Attendees receive a 45-minute emergency preparedness presentation teaching New York City residents how to create a plan, build a supply kit, and keep loved ones safe and informed during times of disaster. In addition, they have access to information booths staffed by emergency experts from such agencies as the Fire Department, Police Department, and the New York City Office of Emergency Management (OEM), where they can get individual questions answered. Participants walk away with an interactive CD that can be used to create a customized evacuation plan and other tools that will help any family get prepared. Also included are various brochures from the American Red Cross and OEM, as well as a quiz to test the attendee’s emergency preparedness knowledge. |
