Palo Alto Ready is a website with emergency preparedness information for young and old (check out our Families section), rich and poor (see Small Spaces, Tight Budgets or Too Busy in our Are You Ready? section), and everyone in between.

We have links to emergency preparedness information for Businesses, Faith Based and Community Based Organizations, Schools and Libraries in our Community Partners page.

Find out what specific hazards our City faces and how you can prepare for them in our Threats and Hazards section. Please note the new link to information about the pandemic at  https://paneighborhoods.org/apandemic/
