We now partner with all the major Senior Centers and teach the importance of personal preparation for disasters and help them understand how they can take simple, important steps critical to their ability to survive.
Using proven practices from State and Local experts, we trained over 3,800 people in 2025, nearly the size of Indian Wells, and more than 15,000 people since inception, which is nearly equivalent to everyone in Rancho Mirage.
