Emergencies can happen anytime and often without warning. The best time to prepare is before they happen. By learning how to prevent, respond to, and recover from emergencies, you can protect yourself, your loved ones, and our community. 

The UBC’s Emergency Preparedness Guide is a great place to begin your journey in emergency planning:
