Our Mission is to enable the community to be self-sufficient for at least 72 hours following a major disaster. Through education, we help increase the awareness of potential emergencies in the City of Sunnyvale. We provide disaster preparedness training to residents through SNAP-Sunnyvale Neighborhoods Actively Prepare, and to businesses through Sunnyvale's Emergency Preparedness Program. Your family could be anywhere when the next disaster strikes-at work, at school, in the car, etc.
Families can cope with disaster by planning ahead.
Knowing what to do can help your family deal with fear and uncertainty. By planning and practicing what to do, your family will be able to respond effectively at the first sign of danger. Many of us spend several hours in our vehicles running errands and commuting back and forth to work. In addition, we also spend several hours at work. A disaster can occur at any time, including while you are in your vehicle or at work.
