Summary of the presentation:
It is an unfortunate reality that disasters happen. Just look to the storms of March 6th and their impact throughout the Kansas City Region to see how much damage can be caused.
When you look at the images of a disaster it can be overwhelming to think of preparing for something like that. And I understand that it can be difficult to balance the immediate needs of today with the possibilities of a disaster that may or may not happen tomorrow.
However, the actions you take before a disaster can affect what your life will be like after. Please join me for a discussion of recent local disasters, development of a family emergency plan, gathering emergency supplies, identifying multiple reliable sources of information and how to get involved if your community is impacted. Once a disaster happens it may be too late. A few simple steps taken now can ensure that you are ready for whatever may happen later.
