September is National Preparedness Month, and the Office of Emergency Preparedness is encouraging everyone in the Police Department to become better prepared.  This means assessing your current level of readiness and improving your planning and emergency supplies.  In our line of work, it is imperative that we ensure our families are safe and prepared at all times.  Take the time to discuss these issues with your family and involve them in the process.  Next Tuesday, September 21st, from 12:00-1:00PM, we'll be offering a brown bag class detailing the process of building an emergency supply kit.  We encourage any of you that are available to join us at the CRC in room 249. 

Class Listing:

How to build your own Emergency Supply Kit

Emergencies can happen at anytime and affect you no matter where you are- at home, at work or while traveling.  Do you have a stocked emergency kit, complete with sufficient water, food, and lighting?  If not, what size is appropriate for you?  What if you are responsible for young children, seniors or pets?  This short class will discuss the basics of constructing your own kit, tailored to your specific needs.  Several example kits will be displayed, including a small desk kit, an office kit, and a large home kit. 

This free class is being offered by the Georgia Tech Police Department Office of Emergency Preparedness during National Preparedness Month.  For more information on Emergency Preparedness at Georgia Tech, please visit us at http://emergencypreparedness.gatech.edu.
