READY! COCONINO   is a program to ensure that citizens fully prepared to handle emergencies and disasters.
There are 4 simple steps

Step 1.  HAVE A PLAN
Develop a family emergency evacuation plan together.  Plan your escape routes from your home, neighborhood and community.  Have
a meeting point and distant relative or friend that everyone can report to if separated.

Step 2.  BE READY
Have a GO KIT that includes a  72 hour supply of water, non-perishable food, change of clothes, battery operated radio, flashlight,
blankets and sleeping bags.  Include a first aid lit, computer files on external/ portable drive; copies of important documents,
medicines, specials items or infants, elderly and special needs family members.  Remember to bring family pictures that can’t be
replaced and your pets for ordered to leave.  Have both a “GO KIT” and “STAY KIT” for sheltering in place.

Step 3.  STAY INFORMED
When a crisis occurs, local public safety officials have three methods to alert the public:

1.     Local radio, television, newspapers, and government web pages such as Arizona Emergency Information Network (AzEIN).

2.     The Emergency Alert System (EAS). Messages are rebroadcast on NOAA weather radio, AM and FM radio and television.

3.     READY! COCONINO Notification System. This system uses an E911 telephone number data bases and GIS mapping to locate  
specific communities to notify in an emergency.  The message is recorded by local emergency officials and broadcasted to your home
via computer and telephone lines.  If you only have a cell phone or VoIP computer phone number, fill out the form at the top of the page.

So keep a portable radio or weather radio handy.  Stay tuned. Learn about the hazards in your community. Be part of READY!
COCONINO system.  Register NOW.

STEP 4. VOLUNTEER  
Public Safety needs your help.  Volunteer in your community.  Join CERT- Community Emergency Response Team; or the American
Red Cross or VOAD (Volunteer Organizations Active in Disaster) Be part of the response team.  Neighbor helping neighbors.
Communities helping each other.

READY! COCONINO is an emergency notification system that serves all of Coconino County, including the cities located within the
County. Computer automation allows operators to send recorded emergency information to a large majority of our residents. Public
safety officials will use this system to notify you in the event of wildland fires, neighborhood evacuations, closures of major highways
due to traffic collisions, natural disasters, law enforcement emergencies, and any other occurrence that may affect the safety of our
community. This system is another tool to help
you stay informed during emergencies.
