This pop-up event is part of a monthly series hosted by HSEM in each City Council District throughout the year on the third Wednesday of each month. The events help community members prepare for disasters using an all-hazards approach that focuses on disasters by season and geography.  

Central Texas faces a wide range of risks, from flooding to wildfires, extreme heat, and winter storms. It is vital for community members to be well-informed about the necessary steps to prepare before an emergency to help recover more quickly.
