Emergency Preparedness

PREPAREDNESS: Emergency Preparation

Disaster can strike quickly and without warning. It can force you to evacuate your neighborhood or confine you to your home. What would you do if basic services - water, gas, electricity or telephones - were cut off? Local officials and relief workers will be on the scene after a disaster, but they cannot reach everyone right away.

Families can - and do - cope with disaster by preparing in advance and working together as a team. Follow the steps listed in this brochure to create your family's disaster plan. Knowing what to do is your best protection and your responsibility.

Where will your family be when disaster strikes? They could be anywhere - at work, at school or in the car.

How will you find each other? Will you know if your children are safe?

(thanks to Bro. Chris Frisbee, Ward Self Reliance Group Facilitator for preparing this)

Addictions in today's world come in all forms. Yosemite Ward has great resources in place to help overcome

EMOTIONAL HEALTH: Addiction Recovery

If you are struggling with addiction or a problematic behavior, you may feel trapped and fear that you will never be free. You can discover support and hope by attending a recovery support group meeting.

Recovery support groups sponsored by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints can help anyone struggling with an addiction or compulsive behavior. Yosemite Ward Classes on Fridays and Tuesdays at 7:00 pm at the building. Check with Mark or Sunni Bitter for scheduling

SELF RELIANCE PLANS

When Church members are struggling with self- reliance, it’s important for leaders to understand the challenges faced. Download a PLAN FORM here. The form helps members assess their needs, income, and expenses; identify available resources; identify service they can give in return for assistance received; and develop their own plan for becoming more self-reliant.
