More than 7 out of 10 Californians are not prepared for an emergency. From the Anaheim Hills fires to the Laguna Beach landslides, Orange County continuously faces emergency situations. We know that the next emergency is coming; we just do not know when or what kind of emergency it will be. But, we can and must prepare now for the next emergency – whether it is natural or man-made.
 

Orange County’s police, fire and public safety officers are some of the most prepared professionals in the nation, well-trained with the latest technologies and resources to respond to any threat posed to Orange County. But, it takes more than our fire, police and emergency professionals to be ready. Residents and businesses must do their part to be prepared, aware and involved.
 

The ReadyOC campaign is an educational program informing businesses and residents about the importance of preparing for any kind of natural, health or man-made disaster. Working together, everyone can make a difference in creating awareness, motivating preparedness and encouraging involvement.

The ReadyOC campaign is funded by the Department of Homeland Security and overseen by the City of Anaheim, City of Santa Ana and the Orange County Sheriff's Department.
