Guests who attend this event can learn about preparing for wildfire, flooding, severe weather, and other hazards. Representatives from HSEM along with other City departments and partners in emergency response will be on site to provide tips, information, and supplies. The first 25 guests will receive an emergency supply kit, with a limit of one per household.

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, to help community members prepare for different hazards.

These events are an excellent opportunity that Austin HSEM offers to the community. Central Texas faces a wide range of risks, from winter storms to extreme heat, and wildfire to flooding. It is vital for community members to be well-informed about the necessary steps before, during, and after emergencies.
