Speaking of calendars...
Each day, the LAFD responds to homes and businesses where personal and collective preparedness has made a difference. Our friends at the Los Angeles County Office of Emergency Management have assembled a unique "calendar-style" Emergency Survival Guide. We learned a thing or two when we read it - and we think you will too:
