Mill Creek's Neighborhood Disaster Preparedness workshops aim to prepare the community for emergencies by providing essential survival skills and safety tips. Scheduled to take place at City Hall North, the workshops are free but require prior registration. The 90-minute sessions will cover critical immediate actions to take after a disaster, such as dealing with gas explosions, potential fires, and water main shutoffs. Emphasizing the importance of neighborly cooperation, these workshops will teach participants how to identify and mitigate safety hazards in their areas. The first workshop is on February 13, 2024, with subsequent sessions planned for May, August, and November.

Residents interested in specialized training can reach out to Police Chaplain Nick Lewis for assistance. This initiative highlights the city's commitment to enhancing community resilience and preparedness in the face of unforeseen events. More details can be found on the city’s official website.
