September is National Emergency Preparedness Month. Commander, Navy Installations Command's (CNIC) Ready Navy Program educates Sailors and their families on how to be prepared when an emergency occurs. This year’s overall theme is 'Disasters Happen. Prepare Now. Learn How.' Ready Navy is a proactive Navy-wide emergency preparedness, public awareness program. It is designed for the Navy community to increase the ability of every person and family on or near Navy installations to meet today's challenges head on and plan and prepare for all types of hazards. Strengthen emergency planning at home, as well as at work, by reading and following the tips and information found on the Ready Navy website.
