IEMA Launches 12-Month Preparedness Effort; Year-long Campaign to Focus on Different Aspects of Preparedness During 2010
As people throughout Illinois make resolutions for the New Year, the Illinois Emergency Management Agency (IEMA) is hoping many will resolve to become better prepared for emergencies during 2010.
To help with those resolutions, the agency today launched a year-long preparedness effort called the “12-Month Preparedness Campaign.”
“People sometimes think emergency preparedness is too daunting, so they don’t do anything,” said IEMA Director Andrew Velasquez III.
“By focusing on one aspect of preparedness each month, we’ll take people through preparedness step by step. Hopefully, by the end of this year people will find it was easy to become better prepared for disasters.” Full Press Release…
