While Floridians are used to being prepared for hurricane season, disasters can occur at any moment from wildfires to tornados. Which is why members from St. Lucie County’s Public Safety Department will be traveling throughout the county in the coming weeks to share important information and answer questions about disaster preparedness.

These informational sessions are an excellent way to learn how to prepare your family and homes against natural disasters. Topics of interest include pet registration, special needs shelter registration and more.

These short presentations will lead up to St. Lucie County’s inaugural Community Preparedness Day on Saturday, May 4 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Havert L. Fenn Center, located at 2000 Virginia Ave.
