In times of crisis, it's essential to have strong community support systems in place. That's where community preparedness organizations come in. These groups are dedicated to helping people prepare for emergencies by providing education, training, and resources. They work closely with local governments and emergency responders to ensure that everyone is as safe as possible when disasters strike.
Disaster response organizations play a critical role in the aftermath of natural or man-made disasters. These groups provide immediate assistance such as food, shelter, medical care, and emotional support to those affected by the event.
