Event Details

When a large disaster happens, first responders and other city services may be overwhelmed.

Transportation may be disrupted and communication may be difficult. It is vital that city residents are prepared to be self-sufficient during these times. Having knowledge of some key disaster skills is a crucial part of that preparedness effort.

This workshop provides training on key skills needed after a disaster and more in depth instruction on key preparedness actions.

Participants will rotate through four stations, with each lasting 30 minutes.

This Workshop covers the following topics:

  • Fire Extinguisher Use
  • Utility Control
  • Building a Kit
  • Water Storage and Purification

Presented by the City of Seattle Office of Emergency Management.

REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED
