Dear CNCS Grantees and Partners,

We are excited about the upcoming National Service Safety Stand Down as a part of America’s PrepareAthon! National Day of Action on April 30!

As we mentioned in our last update, this Day of Action is important to help all of our programs prepare for the hazards they face as well as the individual side of preparedness.  Across the country, thousands of individuals and groups will identify a day and time to commit to participating in a preparedness activity.

As you determine the types of activities your program will engage in, it’s important to register that activity with America’s PrepareAthon!  Even more important is affiliating your activity with CNCS.  Take a look at some highlights below to ensure your activity is counted!

We appreciate your participation in helping to prepare your program for all hazards, disasters and emergencies.  We look forward to the many great events across the country. 

Don’t forget to email DSU@cns.gov with highlights, photos and participation lists so that we can recognize your efforts.  For questions, please contact Chad Stover at cstover@cns.gov

Stay tuned for continued updates this month as we prepare for the National Service Safety Stand Down. 

In Service,
The Disaster Services Team
