AC Disaster Consulting

September marks a significant time for communities across the nation — it's National Preparedness Month. In 2024, Ready.gov is emphasizing the importance of "Starting a Conversation" to help you and your family to take actions to prepare at your own pace. It's a call to action for every individual to prepare and encourage others to ask questions about preparedness actions that might work for them! Each year, #TeamACDC encourages our clients, colleagues, friends, and families to take action and lead in promoting readiness. The goal to ensure that every community is prepared, informed, and ready to face any emergency is one that we can all achieve together! https://bit.ly/3yVBH0V #NationalPreparednessMonth #CommunityResilience #BuildAKit

Today, we are recognizing the anniversary of the day that Hurricane Andrew slammed into South Florida as a CAT 5, causing $27 billion in damages (1992 dollars) in the U.S. alone. Hurricane Andrew, still considered one of the most powerful hurricanes to ever hit the U.S, is an often-used example of the importance of avoiding complacency, even during seasons that are forecast to have “below-normal” hurricane activity. #TeamACDC’s Allison Diego lived in South Florida when Andrew hit, and shared her experience with us, and the impact that it held for her and her career: “Thirty-two years ago, Hurricane Andrew took my first home. Working for the Miami-Dade Parks Department, I found purpose in helping others while distributing ice and water to survivors. Amidst the devastation, I saw firsthand the resilience of a community and the power of public service. That experience shaped my path, leading me into a career in emergency management, where we strive to make a difference every day. From loss came a deep commitment to service, and it's this commitment that drives us to help others rebuild and recover, no matter the challenges we face.” https://lnkd.in/ev9D4ivF #EmergencyManagement #HurricaneAndrew #Anniversary
