Help spread the message of preparedness Sept. 18 in celebration of Get Ready Day. Held each year on the third Tuesday in September, American Public Health Association’s (APHA) Get Ready Day is timed to coincide with National Preparedness Month.

To take part, send a tweet about preparedness today with the #GETREADYDAY hashtag, post a message on facebook or share a link to the Get Ready site. You can also print one of our many great fact sheets and post it on your office bulletin board or home refrigerator.
