Program Update
The Be 2 Weeks Ready Program has been revamped and will be released publicly in June 2024. All updated materials will be available for download on this webpage and offered in six languages: English, Spanish, Chinese, Russian, Vietnamese and ASL.
The revamped program will cover the following units on preparedness: Disaster Preparedness, Emergency Plan, Food Plan, Water Plan, Waste and Hygiene Plan, Shelter, First Aid and emergency management. The units are followed by a series of activities for people to practice what they learn.
Emergency managers, community-based organizations,
community emergency response teams (CERT) and faith-based leaders will be trained over the next few months to facilitate the Be 2 Weeks Ready program within their circles. This program can be done individually or with a trained facilitator in the community.
