Emergency Preparedness Week is here! This year, the theme focuses on making community connections. When emergencies happen, we are “In It Together.”

Emergencies can happen anywhere at any time. The most immediate help during an emergency will come from those around you—your community.

Making community connections today means that when disruptions occur, big or small, you and your community can work together to have a better response and faster recovery.

This year, there are a series of preparedness sessions available from Alberta.ca to help you take action:
