New "Disaster Mind" Game Teaches Importance of Disaster Preparedness
Join us in extending a warm welcome to Steve Ashing, our new Deputy Director at Jasper County Emergency Management, along with his incredible Crisis Canine companion, River!
In recognition of caregivers’ dedication and commitment to those in their care, FEMA and the Rosalynn Carter Institute for Caregivers (RCI) have created the Disaster Preparedness Guide for Caregivers to help them navigate unique challenges that may arise during disasters. While caregiving can be overwhelming at times, taking three essential steps—assessing needs, engaging a support network, and creating a plan—can help caregivers feel more prepared and in control when disaster strikes.
