The North Capitol Hill Emergency Hub will be activated Sunday for a preparedness drill Heres how you can help

Seattle's North Capitol Hill Emergency Hub will host an emergency preparedness drill on Sunday, focusing on enhancing community readiness for earthquakes and other unforeseen disasters. Set in the parking lot of Volunteer Park Church at 13 Ave E and E Aloha, the event invites local residents to participate actively. Attendees will engage in role-playing scenarios designed to simulate various emergency support situations, with scripts provided to guide their involvement. The drill offers a valuable opportunity for community members to brush up on their disaster response skills and connect with their neighbors. Last summer, volunteers discussed the importance of establishing emergency hubs across Seattle neighborhoods.

Participation in this event is free, with registration encouraged for better organization. Local safety efforts emphasize the growing need for disaster preparedness in urban settings. This initiative aligns with broader community resilience strategies in Seattle.
