Together, the ACRD & the City of Port Alberni deliver the Alberni Valley Emergency Program to the residents of the City of Port Alberni, Beaufort, Sproat Lake, Cherry Creek, and Beaver Creek.
In your busy everyday life, disasters may seem an impossible occurrence. Yet disasters such as floods, earthquakes, tsunamis, major storms, fires, chemical spills, power failures, and pandemics can happen in our community at any time.
It is normal to be afraid of disasters; however, fears and anxieties are decreased by being prepared and knowing what to do before a distaste strikes.
While every community must prepare to respond to a disaster, it is important for each and every individual to prepare themselves and their families for a disaster.
Talk to your family about a disaster or emergency … what to do, where to go, who to contact, what household services to turn off and what to take with you. Everyone should be prepared to be self-sufficient for a minimum of 72 hours following a disaster. A week or longer is better.
So... how ready are you?
We are also looking for input on ways to improve our emergency response and preparedness outreach in the Alberni Valley so everyone is better prepared should a disaster strike. Tell us your ideas today.
