Welcome
Welcome to ReadyNH, New Hampshire's emergency preparedness website. The materials presented here are intended to help individuals, families, businesses and other organizations prepare for emergencies.
The holidays are over and it’s time to get on with 2012. Did you make a New Year’s resolution? About half of all Americans do, but how many keep them is another question.
Here is a resolution worth keeping: Resolve to be Ready – Make your resolution to be ready for major disasters or other emergencies that might affect yourself, your family, your business or your community.
Resolve to be Ready is an initiative of the Federal Emergency Management Agency. FEMA has provided a wide variety of preparedness tools and information at its Resolve to be Ready website: www.ready.gov/Resolve.
Of course, ReadyNH also has lots of information right here, focused on the needs of New Hampshire residents, businesses and communities. Use any of this information that applies to you to develop emergency plans that fit your needs.
The new year has gotten off to a quiet start, but 2011 experienced more billion-dollar natural disasters than any year on record, according to the National Climatic Data Center. New Hampshire experienced flooding in the spring and fall that lead to two Presidential Disaster Declarations.
With the arrival of winter, we can expect severe winter storms at some point. This is a great time to keep your New Year’s resolution and prepare now.
