Preparedness Information for Faith-Based Organizations

Missourians rely on people of faith for help and advice, even more so in times of trouble. Ready in 3 can help protect your community, your congregation, your friends and family when an emergency does occur. Working within Missouri’s houses of worship, families, neighborhoods, and communities, we can all be better prepared for an emergency.

The Ready in 3 Family Safety: Three Steps to be Prepared provides detailed information on the three steps in preparing at home, in the car, and on the job for emergency situations.

This page outlines the items that should be included in your emergency plan.

On our Ready in 3 Materials page you will find factsheets, videos, posters and checklists available to view and/or download for printing.

One factsheet that is available is for Youth activities, separated by age group, that organizations can use to help children learn about preparing for emergencies. Activities are available for elementary, middle school, and high school age children.

Another factsheet is available with messages to help faith leaders discuss emergency preparedness with their congregations.

Poster provided directs people where to go for more information on preparing for emergencies and can be displayed on a community bulletin board.
