Prepare
Visit ReadyPA to view and download information to help you prepare for unexpected events. Businesses and organizations can contact our office to obtain printed copies of preparedness materials. When the families of employees are not prepared for an unexpected event, they will not be available to meet their employment obligations. Individual preparedness prevents this from occurring and preserves a community's economy. Don't be surprised, be prepared!!!

Emergency Plan Guidance and Sample Templates
Child Care Emergency Planning Tool Kit
The Child Care Emergency Planning Tool Kit should yield an emergency plan for child care centers that enhances safety of the staff and children in the center and satisfies the licensing requirements of the Pennsylvania Department of Public Welfare. The kit includes a three-part plan (Basic Plan, Checklists and Supporting Documents), and a Childcare Facilities Planning Guide that helps fill in the blanks to complete the plan.
Questions about child care and child care programs should be directed to the Pennsylvania Department of Public Welfare. Help with emergency planning can be obtained from the Blair County EMA office by calling 814-940-5901.
