Throughout the nation, disasters are becoming an increasing part of the landscape, thus making emergency preparedness more important than it has ever been. What can you do to be as prepared as possible should you need to evacuate due to a natural disaster? How can you find out about your local disaster preparedness plan and what are some of the areas in which advocacy efforts are needed? To answer these questions as well as your own questions and concerns, the California Alliance on Aging and Vision Loss (CAAVL) presented our community call. Presenters were:
