Learn Skills

When disasters happen, City services will likely be overwhelmed. Bridges and roadways can be damaged and may limit resources from getting to your area. Learning some basic skills can go a long way in reducing injuries, damage to property and prepare you to take care of yourself and others. We have assembled some Adobe Acrobat documents that you can download that will explain how to do the tasks most commonly needed after a disaster.
