Why is “Drop, Cover, and Hold On” important to practice? You may only have seconds to protect yourself in an earthquake before strong shaking knocks you down, or something falls on you. Practicing helps you be ready to react.
It is recommended that you, your school or organization, and your community review and update plans and supplies, and secure your space in order to prevent damage and injuries from earthquakes. Everyone can participate! Individuals, families schools, government agencies, businesses and other organizations are all invited to register!
