Why Prepare?

Disasters can strike without warning, and the right preparations can make all the difference. Having the skills, resources, and a well-prepared grab-and-go bag ensures your family can respond quickly and stay safe in any emergency.

Now Is The Time

Waiting until an emergency happens is too late to start planning. Even just recently, Utah experienced two earthquakes—one centered in the Uintah Mountains and another in Lehi. By taking simple steps now—like building a grab-and-go bag and learning essential skills—you can protect your family and face any situation with confidence.

About Neighbors-Prepared.org

We help families and individuals prepare for emergencies through education and community support. While open to all, this effort primarily serves residents in Holladay’s newly annexed northeast section (3900 S to 4500 S, 2300 E to I-215). Neighborhood volunteers help promote and host annual preparedness events to help the community stay ready. Want to get involved? Email us! We’re pleased to have participation from the City of Holladay, Salt Lake County, the State of Utah, and the Salt Lake Olympus Stake, and Salt Lake Olympus, Holladay, and Holladay North Stakes.

Prepare for the Inevitable: Understanding the Risk

Experts warn that the Wasatch Front is overdue for a major earthquake. While we can’t predict the exact timing, the possibility of significant seismic activity in the coming decades is a real threat. Taking proactive steps now can help protect your family, home, and community.

A Key Strategy – Grab’n Go bags

In an emergency, having a grab-and-go bag for each family member is critical. These bags should include essential supplies for several days. It’s also crucial to have a bag in your car, ensuring you can quickly evacuate, whether on foot or by vehicle. This year our focus is helping families update or build their grab-and-go bags.

Come to a Fair

We host Preparedness Fairs & Training Events to help families get ready for any disaster. Bring the whole family—enjoy refreshments, games, and hands-on learning. Gain essential skills, tips, and connections, from building 72-hour kits to storing food and water, preparing your vehicle, cooking without power, and improving first aid readiness.
