RESERVE YOUR SNAP TIME NOW FOR A FREE PROGRAM IN MARCH, APRIL OR MAY!
The
Seattle Office of Emergency Management is taking reservations to have
the SNAP (Seattle Neighborhoods Actively Prepare) program presented
right in your living room! Invite a dozen or more of your closest
neighbors together and reserve your time for an evening or weekend
class, beginning in March. We cover all the emergency essentials, from
safe actions to coordinating with others. Classes last about an hour and
are taught by trained volunteers.
To schedule a program, please email us at: SNAP@seattle.gov.
Provide your name, contact info and preferred date and time in March,
April or May. Please allow three weeks’ notice, and we’ll make sure you
have everything you need to host a successful SNAP party! For more
information, email us at SNAP@seattle.gov.
OVERVIEW:
For
2014, the Seattle Office of Emergency Management will offer a series of
short, skills-based workshops in partnership with Seattle Public
Libraries. Each 30-minute workshop will focus on one aspect of
preparedness. The same workshop will be offered geographically
throughout the city four times each month – one North, one Central, one
South, and one lunch program at the Central Library.
