The City of Los Altos in collaboration with the Los Altos Police Department and Santa Clara County Fire Department is pleased to offer FREE Personal Emergency Preparedness classes to Los Altos residents.

When a disaster strikes, it may be hours or even days before emergency medical, police and fire are able to respond in your neighborhood. It is important for individuals and families to be prepared to be self-sufficient for the first 72 hours following a disaster. This 3-hour Personal Emergency Preparedness course is designed to prepare citizens to cope in the event of a disaster.

Emergency Preparedness topics include:

• Earthquake emergency supplies to have available
• The impact of an area-wide disaster for individuals and community
• What to do when your phones don’t work—how to contact your family members
• When and how to turn gas, electrical and water off

All residents are encouraged to take advantage of this FREE resource.
