READY Fest '23

Enjoy images from Naples READY Fest, the community's first ever Emergency Preparedness Fair. The event was presented by LB CERT-Naples Team in partnership with the Naples Improvement Association and LB CERT.

THE PLAN

Following a disaster such as a major earthquake… 

do you have “Emergency Response Buddies” who will

check on you? • Check on your pets? • Check on your home?
Make sure there are no gas leaks?

 

In collaboration with the city and the LBFD, and following FEMA guidelines,

Naples has a community-based emergency response plan

that will mobilize residents, employees and visitors to serve as first responders

until professional responders, such as LBFD, can make it to the island. 

 

THE PLAN INCLUDES

Island-wide Communication in Concert with City Partners

Light Search and Rescue • Fire Suppression • Medical Care

Child, Senior and Special Needs Care • Emotional Care

Pet Care • Assisting Island Visitors • Coordinated Evacuation

Water Rescue and Ferrying On/Off the Island

BLOCK CAPTAIN DIRECTORY

As part of THE PLAN, the islands are divided into six "DIVISIONS."

Each Division is subdivided into "BLOCKS."

And each Block has a "BLOCK CAPTAIN."

To find your Block Captain, start by identifying your

Division and Block on the map below,

then check the Block Captain Directory.
