What is National Preparedness Month (NPM)?
September is National Preparedness Month! This awareness month is sponsored by the Ready Campaign in partnership with Citizen Corps and the Ad Council. NPM is designed to encourage Americans to take simple steps to prepare for emergencies in their homes, businesses, and communities.
How do I register my organization?
You can register to become a NPM Coalition Member by visiting http://ready.adcouncil.org
In the past we have had as many as 3,200 NPM Coalition Members who worked to create a culture of preparedness in the United States. We hope your organization will join us in spreading this emergency preparedness message in 2010!
What does it mean to be a NPM Coalition Member?
By joining the Coalition, your organization would agree to promote emergency preparedness in any way that it can during September.
Who can sign up to be an NPM Coalition Member?
NPM Coalition membership is open to all public and private sector organizations at no cost.
What do I get for being a Coalition Member?
Once you register you will receive access to the NPM Website where you can find a toolkit that includes templates, resources, and tips to assist you with promoting emergency preparedness. You will also find an NPM calendar where you can post your events and see what other organizations are doing in your community. In addition, you can share your success stories and read about the successes of others.
Your organization will also be listed on our Web site!
