Diamond Heights Disaster Ready Guide for Home and Business
Special thanks are due to NICOS Chinese Health Coalition for lending the Chinatown Fast Facts as a template for this site. In July 2008, the Diamond Heights Emergency Preparedness Planning Workgroup began meetings with neighborhood stakeholders toward the goal of developing a plan for how we could work together in Diamond Heights to provide services after a neighborhood or regional emergency or disaster. This guide completes our first goal to help our neighbors prepare their homes and businesses. Many thanks are due to the following individuals and organizations for the review and development of this guide.
