National Preparedness Month

The D.C. Homeland Security and Emergency Management Agency (HSEMA), in conjunction with Serve DC are planning a series of events during National Preparedness Month.

National Preparedness Month, sponsored by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, is a nationwide effort held each September to encourage Americans to be informed, make a plan, make an emergency go kit, and be aware. The goal of the month is to increase public awareness about the importance of preparing for emergencies and to encourage individuals to take action.

If you would like to participate, have suggestions, or need additional information, please feel free to contact Donneshia Taylor at Donneshia.Taylor@dc.gov.
