Neighbors are practicing our response to a major disaster. We will set up the “Hub” but we need actors (like you!) to stop by and present Hub volunteers with a scenario that would be common after a big earthquake. (We provide the scenario; you just have to read it to a Hub volunteer.) After that, Hub volunteers will work to get your needs met. One or two trips thru the Hub system and it will make perfect sense. No experience needed, just show up!
Victory Heights Park (1737 NE 106th Street, 98125)
We’re also hosting a mini-Skills Fair. You will learn multiple skills to help you prepare for, and respond to, an emergency situation.
