Sharp-eyed visitors to this blog have no doubt already noticed the new National Preparedness Month 2010 logo on my sidebar.
Although this is only May, and NPM 2010 happens in September, the Ad Council in concert with Ready.gov, FEMA, and Citizen Corps are kicking off their awareness campaign and looking for coalition members.
As you might expect, Avian Flu Diary has already signed up. And you can too.
I’ll let Ready.gov explain the process. Click on the image below to go to the sign up page.
Once you sign up you’ll have access to the NPM toolkit, which includes PowerPoint presentations, brochures, posters, web badges and logos, videos, and a calendar where you can post planned activities online.
It’s free, and easy.
And by taking part in NPM 2010 you’ll be helping to create a culture of preparedness in your workplace, your community and in your circle of friends and family.
Something that could save lives during an emergency.
