HOW DO YOU START A SAFE HUB?
True disaster readiness begins with neighbors looking out for one another. By forming a Safe Hub, you are creating a reliable gathering point where your community can find accurate information, access vital communication links, and organize local volunteer efforts. This program is built on simple systems that require minimal training, allowing you to take ownership of your neighborhood’s resilience and provide a sense of security when it is needed most.
