Announcing Seven Simple Steps to Starting A Whole Community Preparedness Program FEMA’s “Preparedness Activities for Communities Everywhere” tools (available in English and Spanish) are designed to educate individuals and communities about simple steps they can take to become more prepared. FEMA’s Individual and Community Preparedness Division (ICPD) worked with the Emergency Management Institute (EMI) to create a curriculum that serves the needs and interests of the whole community. This curriculum can serve as an initial step to learn about preparedness as a building block to more advanced preparedness training or to supplement existing efforts. The free, online Program Leaders Guide provides the following simple steps to implement these tools: Step 1: Take the Free Online Introductory Program Course - emilms.fema.gov/IS909/index.htm Step 2: Identify Your Target Audience Step 3: Determine Interests and Needs Step 4: Select Presenters Step 5: Prepare the Presentation Step 6: Arrange Logistics Step 7: Get the Word Out If you have taken the training or if you have started a training program on a Preparedness Topic in your community, we would like to hear from you! Additionally, FEMA is available to help you develop, tailor and refine quality local community preparedness programs to fit your needs.
