We should all be prepared for disasters by having a plan, assessing our individual situations and needs, and knowing what to do in an emergency. The Agency for Persons with Disabilities (APD) wants to provide clients, waiver support coordinators, partners, providers, and staff with resources to help meet your needs in an emergency.
The resource links listed below contain information to help individuals plan for and recover from a disaster or emergency occurring within the state of Florida.
Be sure to check out the APD Emergency Preparedness Guide for more information on how to be prepared for disasters.
