[NFB-Talk] Emergency Preparedness Research

[th404 at comcast.net]

I'm doing research on emergency preparedness, so I can prepare myself should
there be an emergency in my area. Since I live in Oregon, I've been hearing
about the much predicted Cascadia earthquake. That hasn't happened yet, but
it could happen either this year or in 1- years.

 

Bottom line: I want to be prepared as a blind person to deal with any kind
of emergency.

 

While I certainly plan to look for emergency kits as most mainstream sources
talk about, I'm also aware that there may be additional considerations
specific to blindness. Do any of you have suggestions on what I might do as
a blind person to prepare for emergencies? Do any of you know of how I can
work with my city to ensure that I, and other blind people in my area can be
safe? Thanks.
