SERVPRO of East Greenville County Observes National Preparedness Month 2018

8/28/2018 (Permalink)

September is National Preparedness Month (NPM), and it is a month dedicated to the idea that preparation is a critical factor in protecting ourselves and our families. NPM has been celebrated since 2004, and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) dedicates the month to educating and promoting information that helps Americans take action to prepare their schools, communities, businesses, and homes. The information provided by FEMA helps the general public be prepared for and ready to respond to emergencies such as natural disasters.

National Preparedness Month 2018’s overall theme is: Disasters Happen. Prepare Now. Learn How. Each week will focus on different ways that you can prepare for disasters.

• Week 1: September 1-8  Make and Practice Your Plan
• Week 2: September 9-15* Learn Life Saving Skills
• Week 4 September 16-22 Check Your Insurance Coverage
• Week 4: September 23-29 Save For an Emergency
• September 15 is National Day of Action
