Board plans Two-Weeks-Ready neighborhood outreach and considers churches and fair distribution
Summary
The board discussed promoting the statewide Two-Weeks-Ready preparedness toolkit via neighborhood community hosts, local churches and the Old Fashioned Fair; staff offered physical kits and PowerPoint resources for community meetings.
Members described strategies to recruit community hosts and partner with neighborhood groups and churches to run Two-Weeks-Ready workshops. Greg and the Chair reported attending a Canby event and suggested reaching out to up to 16 local congregations; Dylan said the city has boxes of printed kits and resources to distribute and can support community-host events.
The board also discussed featuring the preparedness toolkit at the Old Fashioned Fair as a low-barrier way to reach residents; volunteers offered to scan event calendars and share a calendar of April preparedness-focused events for distribution in board minutes and emails.
