Technology Resources For Disaster Preparedness

Advancements in technology and communications allow for each individual or groups to prepare for unfortunate disasters. Are you prepared or require assistance? Dave and Steve discuss information sources and technology applications to help.

Disaster and emergency will happen. It’s a matter of time and we have to be prepared. Many of us, unfortunately, lack in the preparation for such events. There are a host of technological resources available for us to learn from, help us prepare, and move us toward emergency response. There is a media campaign titled Text First. Talk Second. which promotes the message of communicating with family and friends during emergencies via text first rather jumping to making that phone call. There are a host of webinars and podcasts available that teachers, families, and business owners can listen to as a way of preparing. Let’s not forget the power of our mobile devices, where we can get apps that help us through emergency situations.
