What We Do

Disaster Preparedness

Are your employees prepared for a disaster?

Personal Responsibility & Self Sufficiency

 

Lack of emergency preparedness has caused loss of life, injury, economic loss and untold human suffering from disasters that have impacted Northwest Florida:

  • 40% of businesses that close following a disaster never reopen and 25% of those that reopen permanently close within 2 years
  • 44% of the public indicate they have not done more to prepare for disasters because they don’t know what to do

BRACE has:

  • Localized the Public Readiness Index survey to provide a best practice tool to enhance disaster readiness
  • Engaged partners to conduct training in developing a family disaster plan and assembling a disaster supplies kit
