RE: Preppers of SteemIt! Did you know you can earn certifications through FEMA for FREE?

I'll have to seeif I can find what the program was but there's something now similar to what they used to call the civil defense program that they have that gives you an official looking vest & hardhat with the logo on it, and it's run by local government, that might just give you some inside connections with local first responders (i.e. police & fire) in case something cataclysmic does occur.

Sort:  

is it this organization? I am a total dork and would love to have an official vest and hardhat. 🤓 I already scoped out our local fire station, the first responders nearest to our home. They won't have food or water for the community but they'll have medical supplies & knowledge.

I want to say it was something different that was put together after 9/11 but that would do. Anything to become less regarded as one of "them" in the eyes of "The Officials" and increase the likelihood that someone will go "Oh, that's the Flusterfarms, let them in."
