AHS hosting workshops to share tips on preparing for emergency

Jan 22, 2024 | 4:08 PM

Albertans are invited to participate in Emergency Preparedness, or E-Prep, an online workshop that shares ways to be emotionally, socially and practically prepared for a disaster or an emergency.

The workshop uses a step-by-step approach to help people make emergency plans that are unique to their lives. It encourages individuals to discuss, explore, discover and develop their own personal emergency preparedness plan.

Through this interactive and educational webinar, participants are guided through a step-by-step approach to create a personalized emergency preparedness kit while focusing on mental health and emotional wellness. The program is for adults interested in learning skills to cope with disasters and emergencies, and to deal with stress.

Participants can take part through their smartphone, tablet or computer.

Register for one of the following dates available.
