September is fast approaching, along with the annual observance of National Preparedness Month. Townships and their emergency management coordinators can help spread FEMA’s message of being prepared for any kind of natural or human-made emergency.

What can your township do? Urge your residents to get involved and stay well-informed by sharing information through your township website, social media channels, newsletter, and at community events.

Learn more and access a full toolkit at www.ready.gov/september (the 2025 toolkit will be available soon). You can also find preparedness information at www.fema.gov.
