Youth preparedness is all about teaching and training children and youth those skills that help them to be actively engaged in school safety every day and to be ready to jump in during and after emergencies. This Ready.gov article highlights several instances of how teens involved in Youth Preparedness Councils across the country stepped up to support their families, school communities, and communities. Some examples include youth developing and facilitating a Webinar on vaccines, conducting Stop the Bleed and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) classes for the community, creating preparedness trainings for students with disabilities, and establishing a nonprofit that provided study guides in exchange for donations to help people affected by COVID-19.
