Emergency Preparedness

COMMUNITY > Emergency Services > Emergency Preparedness

An emergency or natural disaster can happen anytime, anwhere.

The District has an Emergency Plan to guide response to major emergencies and disasters. There are also Provincial and Federal entities that play a role in emergency planning and response.

Personal emergency preparedness is also important. It goes a long way toward safeguarding your family – residents should be prepared to take care of themselves for the first 72 hours of an emergency, allowing government agencies to respond effectively to any emergency situation.

To take a free Personal Emergency Preparedness course, contact the Distirct Office. This short, informative course prepares you to take care of youself and your family during an emergency, which lessens the demand for already busy emergency services.

There are also many volunteer opportunities with the Neighbourhood Emergency Preparedness Program, Emergency Social Services, Personal Disaster Assistance, Amateur Radio, and Nechako Search and Rescue.
