We’ve all heard the call to prepare for emergencies: YOYO: You’re On Your Own. Whether a severe winter storm, fire or earthquake, we need to be able to help ourselves. Our rural lifestyle has always called for self-reliance and neighbor helping neighbor. There is a new movement afoot in our communities to ensure the “You” in an emergency scenario is the stronger partnership between you and your neighbors. Local 20/20 is teaming up with the Jefferson County Department of Emergency Management (DEM) and GetEmergencyPrepared to help you and your neighbors prepare together.

To learn more about this project, see our Neighborhood Organizing  page or contact your Local 2020 representative.

GetEmergencyPrepared has provided a structured online course to help you prepare your household to meet the challenges presented by a wide variety of emergencies.  Please visit their website for more information.
