Neighborhood Preparedness
Preparing for and responding to disaster begins with preparing yourself and your family, but there are limits
to what an individual or family can do. When a large disaster strikes and City first responders are overwhelmed, the
first people you will turn to for help will be your neighbors. Building good relationships with your neighbors is the
best way to extend your personal safety net.
The City of Seattle has created the Seattle Neighborhoods Actively Prepare (SNAP) program
to enable people to get prepared both at the personal and at the neighborhood levels. We have created an online toolkit to help
you and your neighbhors prepare for the time when the City is unable to respond to your critical needs. For more information see the
Getting Organized section of our SNAP program.
