Join Neighbourhood Services, in partnership with the Red Cross, to learn how to strengthen your community and prepare for emergencies. You will learn practical skills such as how to identify hazards, make a plan for your family and neighbourhood, and build a support network when an emergency strikes.

Emergencies can take on many different forms and can affect a wide range of people. One consistency between all emergencies is the importance of neighbours helping neighbours during a crisis. Neighbours helping neighbours is a critically important component of the immediate emergency response as well as a community’s long term recovery.

In order to enable people to build and belong to communities that matter, we strive to empower citizens to be resilient by connecting to resources that help neighbourhoods deal with challenges. These challenges can take on various forms including a variety of emergency situations.
