Emergency Preparedness Jump Start
The Jump-Start outlines 3 simple steps we hope every resident will take.
1. Register for SMCAlert.info to get local emergency alerts.
2. Make a plan for the basic steps your family can take to stay in control when an emergency happens.
3. Get a Go-Bag so you do not have to think about what to take when you might only have a few minutes to grab-and-go.
Emergency Preparedness - The Checklist
This simple checklist gives you an easy way to figure out what else you can do, whenever you have a few minutes, to be better prepared for emergencies. We don't try to prepare for big things like earthquakes and wildfires. We prepare for a lot of little things, like being without power, being without tap water, and having a minor injury. It's when we can manage a handful of those little things that we are prepared for the big things.
