Be Ready: Tips for Families of Children and Youth with Disabilities & Medical Needs
Families with children and youth with disabilities and medical needs are known to be some of the most vulnerable in a disaster. These families have fewer resources, and they require both community and health care provider support to achieve readiness. These 7-10 minute videos instruct families on the importance of disaster readiness. They are designed to be used as everyday preparedness and just-in-time information. Post a link to these resources on your disaster readiness websites and share via social media.
