WHY EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS MATTERS

Everyone has a part in the emergency planning process! It takes the whole community including government, first responders and the community, working together to respond to and recover from an emergency or disaster.  When we work together our communities are stronger when faced with and more resilient after an emergency or disaster occurs.

 

WHAT'S THE PURPOSE OF THE EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS FAIR?

The purpose of the Emergency Preparedness Fair is to bring County departments and partner organizations that provide direct emergency resources and services to one place and allow community members the opportunity to familiarize themselves with these organizations. By doing so, community members will know who to contact for emergency resources and services in the event of an emergency or disaster.

The Emergency Preparedness Fair is also a great opportunity for community members to learn more about how to prepare for emergencies and disasters as well as the potential risks and hazards in Santa Clara County.
