Disaster preparedness is an important responsibility for everyone. While emergency service providers and government agencies are always here to help in times of crisis, your own personal level of preparedness can ease the burden on local providers so that they can focus on the most critical tasks.
These days, there’s an App for just about everything, and mobile preparedness is no exception. As busy as we all are, mobile applications can assist us in a variety of ways. From personal planning, to first aid instructions, to weather alerting and forecasting, to shelter information, it’s all out there for free.
