How can you help in event of a disaster?

   

Durham Interfaith Disaster Relief invites you to the showing of "People Like You" a 75 minute DVD on being part of the solution.

 

Disaster preparedness is prudent, not paranoid! No matter where you live in America, road closures, power outages, flooding, fires, earthquakes, hurricanes or tornadoes are a fact of life. Less likely, but possible, is a pandemic or terrorist incident. Are you prepared to protect your loved ones and yourself? Your community?

The government and our first responders all warn us that in a major disaster help is not coming for hours, days, perhaps weeks. There simply aren't enough of them. It is imperative that citizen volunteers, people like you, have some training to bridge the gap until professional help arrives. Where can you get that training? All over the country, in neighborhoods like yours, classes and certifications are being given for CERT: Community Emergency Response Teams.

"People Like You" gives you the essential information from an actual CERT class given in California. Rich in imagery, fast paced and packed with vital strategies, this film covers Emergency Supplies, Utilities, Communications, Natural & Man-made Threats, Search & Rescue, Travel & Terrorism, Medical Triage, First Aid and Disaster Psychology in lively, easy-viewing chapters.

"People Like You" was produced with the certain knowledge that in any kind of a disaster, if you're not part of the solution, you'll be part of the problem. It's the goal of CERT training and this video, to help you become part of your community's solution.
