Each September, we celebrate #NationalPreparednessMonth. Our 2023 National Household Survey showed that 65% of AANHPI individuals across the nation do not believe that taking a step to prepare will make a difference. Preparing for emergencies on blue sky days can make all the difference when disaster strikes. Let's #StartAConversation, close the preparedness gap, & address barriers across our communities. #NPM2024
