Red Cross Hometown Response-Ready
Based on an internal directive, the Sierra-Nevada chapter or the American
Red Cross is now evolving and reorganizing its traditional lines of service
to not only meet the demands of it’s community, but to support the activities
mandated by federal Homeland Security initiatives. The Hometown Response-Ready
Campaign was developed to launch these organizational changes. The campaign,
based on the following factors: Every
American is vividly aware of the threat of terrorism,
- The
American public has heightened concern about a variety of other possible
dangers There is greater emphasis on “homeland security” by governmental
entities
- Local
law enforcement, national security agencies, and U.S. troops are on
heightened alert
- Local
emergency service organizations have developed new emergency education
and training mandate, and Individuals, business, and industry do not
believe they are prepared to deal with these dangers in either their
homes or workplace
- Will
combine the Public Preparedness Education, Disaster Relief, and Crisis
Communication components of the State of Nevada’s mandates supporting
Homeland Security.
The Hometown Response-Ready Campaign also contains a comprehensive cause-related
outreach component with community, governmental, and media partners.
