A little preparedness can go a long way in an emergency. Learn how to take basic steps toward personal and household preparedness, and consider your role in disaster response. Leave with a better understanding of the risks we face and the tools you need to be ready to handle whatever comes!


Students will need access to a laptop/desktop computer (Mac or PC) and internet access. Students will meet online using Zoom. A link along with any other class information will be emailed out to families prior to the class start.


We are committed to making it possible for all students to participate in classes regardless of financial circumstances. Class tuition is charged on a sliding scale based on annual household income and family size. There is no application. Click here to learn more about Tuition Assistance.
