City Survey Focuses on Emergency Preparedness
In recognition of National Preparedness Month, the City of Irvine has launched a Community Disaster Resiliency Survey to gain a better understanding of residents' preparedness ahead of a disaster.
The survey offers insight into residents' awareness of emergency alert methods and evacuation zones, as well as their overall readiness for emergencies such as earthquakes, wildfires, power outages, and other disasters.
Results from the survey will be used to improve disaster planning and tailor outreach, education, and training to meet community needs.
Take the survey(link is external)and help shape outreach and preparedness activities.
National Preparedness Month takes place every September and serves as a reminder for all Americans to be ready for emergencies. This year's theme, Preparedness Starts at Home, highlights the small, everyday steps families can take to be ready before emergencies occur.
In addition to taking the Community Disaster Resiliency Survey, residents are encouraged to take the following steps:
