We’ve watched wildfires, floods, tornadoes, hurricanes, and brutal heat devastate communities. Many people in at-risk communities remain unprepared.

​

More than 70% of those impacted by these events are not prepared or are underinsured. The results can be catastrophic, resulting in displacement, loss of property and even life. Recovery is difficult, costly, time-consuming and demoralizing.

 

The key findings of the FEMA National Preparedness Surveys are eye opening:

▪ For higher risk areas, only 1/2 perceived their risk of being impacted.

▪ Of those at risk of wildfire, 60% indicated they were not prepared.

▪ Many acknowledge the risk but have not been exposed to what to do about it.

▪ Cost barriers prevent many from taking important preparedness actions
