Orlando, FL: Disaster preparedness is possible and the City of Orlando Office of Emergency Management and American Red Cross of Central Florida want to show you how to do it!

Join us on Saturday, May 3rd from 11am - 5pm for the 5th annual  Mission: Possible training event. At Mission: Possible, you'll learn how to make a family plan, build a disaster kit, get trained in basic first-aide and CPR, as well as what volunteer opportunities are available and the importance of giving blood. These free workshops will be taught simultaneously in English and Spanish. The information provided in these workshops will empower you to make a difference in the community, while protecting yourself and your loved ones from disaster situations.

Also, we invite you to check out the Hispanic Advisory Network's Health and Safety Fair in the morning to learn the importance of good health and safety. Additionally, participants will enjoy a free delicious hot dog and hamburger lunch, a Kid's Zone with a bounce house for the little ones, and the opportunity to meet with representatives from local, state, and federal emergency management, including FEMA. Finally, the evening will conclude at 6pm with a Citizen Emergency Response Team drill hosted by Orlando Fire Department.

Come find out how easy and important it is to prepare for emergencies at this year's Mission: Possible!
