About this event
Wildfires are now more frequent, destructive, and fast-moving than ever. Berkeley residents must change how we prepare and respond.
This workshop will focus on the Household Fire Weather Plan. Participants should complete their Household Fire Weather Plan with their family before the workshop. During the workshop we will discuss ways we can all improve our household's customized plans for what to do during fire weather and wildfire evacuations.
Please direct any questions to the Office of Emergency Services at (510) 812-9519.
