Program Description

Event Details

The Coos Bay Public Library's Community Engagement Specialist, Tammy Aley, has teamed up with Terry Plotz, Department of Geology and Mineral Industries' (DOGAMI) Earthquake and Tsunami Preparedness Educator, to offer this virtual workshop on Emergency Preparedness.

Emergencies are inevitable. Therefore, it is important to understand how to prepare for them so you know what to expect, know how to communicate with family and outside agencies, and are able to keep yourself and your family as safe as possible.

Families are invited to this event as well as individuals. Terry will provide information in an understandable and sensitive way so all can benefit from it. The topics that will be covered are earthquakes (Cascadia), tsunamis, fire, communication, as well as other important topics such as a “Go Bag.” This workshop is scheduled to be one hour long.
