How to Prepare

The Ready, Set, Go! Program was developed to help educate property owners and residents living in high risk areas be ready for the next wildfire.

The program is comprised of three basic steps:

• STEP 1: Be READY – Create and maintain defensible space and harden your home against flying embers.
• STEP 2: Get SET – Prepare your family and home ahead of time for the possibility of having to evacuate.
• STEP 3: Be ready to GO – Take the evacuation steps necessary to give your family and home the best chance of surviving a wildfire.
