(INDIANAPOLIS ) - The Indiana Department of Homeland Security is continuing to gather information from Indiana citizens about their preparedness levels in the event of a widespread emergency or disaster.
IDHS launched a brief survey for Hoosiers to complete so that it can gain a greater understanding of how prepared Indiana residents are and how to help increase that preparedness level.
The 10-minute online survey can be found on the IDHS website at www.in.gov/dhs under the "Featured Topics" section and clicking on "IDHS Citizen Preparedness Survey 2015." All who participate can enter a contest to win a free all hazards/weather radio. Access to the survey has been extended until September 30.
The online survey is designed to emphasize the need for preparedness. September, which is National Preparedness Month, is a time when emergency management and other related partners specially emphasize being ready for an emergency or disaster. Messages during the month will seek to encourage all Hoosiers to take the necessary steps to ensure that their homes, workplaces and communities are prepared for disasters and emergencies of all kinds.
For more information on how to be ready for all type of emergencies, visit Getprepared.IN.gov.
