Thanks to all who joined us to kick off Prepare the Town: Brownsville! Our volunteers were in full force to help teach people about hands-only CPR, how to get a free smoke alarm through our Home Fire Campaign, and what steps you can take to be ready for disasters. Our preparedness team will be in the Brownsville community throughout the month of July to help people get ready for emergencies, such as home fires, before they happen. If you are interested in hosting an event, visit https://lnkd.in/ehAxrE3u to see the programs we offer and how to contact us. Special thanks to State Senator Roxanne Persaud for joining us at the Van Dyke Community Center, to New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA) and CAMBA for hosting us, and to New York City Fire Department, New York City Emergency Management Department, and NYC Department for the Aging for their partnership in helping prepare Brownsville for emergencies.
