Redwood City's
"Are You Ready?"
Disaster Preparedness Overview
Class

"Are You Ready?" is a quick and informative introduction to disaster preparedness. It's perfect for individuals, families, or groups that don't currently have the time to attend our more-intensive Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) program, and it provides the basics of how to survive after a major emergency. The Redwood City Fire Department provides the training materials and instructors, you provide the interest and enthusiasm!

This FREE one-to-two hour class covers the basics of what to do before, during, and after a major emergency. You will learn how to:

  • Get informed
  • Put together a kit
  • Make a plan

"Are You Ready?" is a great lead-in to our CERT training program - class size is limited, so sign up for an upcoming session now!
