Emergency Preparedness has long been one of my top priorities — a passion forged by the 1994 Northridge Earthquake and my extensive work helping the Valley recover. From building a robust emergency preparedness volunteer action committee that has stepped up during disasters, to hosting LAFD CERT trainings at my District Office, to passing legislation designed to bolster readiness --my goal is to make every West Valley resident better prepared for the next disaster. Remember, it's not "if" but "when" the next disaster will strike. Read below to learn more about some of my efforts to expand emergency preparedness.
