  • What is Survivor Day?
    Richmond Ready is a concept the City adopted to ensure planning, preparedness, response, recovery and mitigation are not just actions taken by public safety officials and private partners but also the private citizen. Being prepared can reduce fear, anxiety, and losses that accompany disasters. The issuance of a survival kit following a 4 hour training session will give each household that edge of confidence! Our citizens must be ready and able to deal with such events.
