Attendees will be instructed how to make an emergency preparedness plan, what types of materials to stock in an emergency kit, as well as other information about the three types of emergencies listed above.
Becky Fry, a Red Cross preparedness training specialist, will be presenting the materials and is available to travel to the agencies, offices and community groups that would like to receive this education.
