3 Steps to Preparedness

It is important to have a safety plan in place in the event of a natural disaster. Ready LA County has prepared several emergency survival guides. Visit the Spanish and English version to learn more.

Do you have all you need to be prepared for an emergency?

Learn about what to include in your basic first aid kit, your disaster supply home kit, and your pet disaster supply kit.

Ensure you and your family, including your furry friends, have all you need at all times.

It’s important to stay up-to-date on the latest news in your area. Time is key to staying ahead of, and preparing for, natural disasters.
