SUMMARY:Emergency Radio Training
DESCRIPTION:Dunbar Earthquake and Emergency Planning (DEEP)\, the Pacific Spirit MedVents (Medical Venturers) and Vancouver Emergency Community Telecommunications Organization (VECTOR) invite you to an introductory emergency radio training session on Saturday\, October 18th from 10:30 a.m. until noon. \nThis free training session at the Disaster Support Hub will introduce you to DEEP’s radio operations and give you some basic skills in how to use mobile radios to help out our community at a time of urgent need. \nThe Hub\, located at the basketball court behind the Dunbar Community Centre\, is where community members can gather to exchange information and coordinate their efforts to help each other during a disaster. \nWhen a major disaster such as an earthquake occurs\, our usual communication modes – cell phones\, the internet – may be out of commission for a sustained period. DEEP’s radio operations at the Disaster Support Hub will be critical to the Dunbar community’s ability to obtain and pass on important information to and from regional disaster response authorities. The Hub’s mobile radios will also help community volunteers to coordinate neighbourhood relief efforts including damage assessment\, fire watch\, and local search and rescue. \nPlease register for this free in-person workshop below.

SUMMARY:B.C. Housing's Rapid Damage Assessment Program - An Introduction
DESCRIPTION:Dunbar Earthquake and Emergency Preparedness (DEEP) invites you to its Annual General Meeting which features a presentation on B.C Housing’s Rapid Damage Assessment Program. The business portion of the meeting will be very brief\, and will be followed by John Halldorson’s introduction to B.C Housing’s Rapid Damage Assessment Program. \nEarthquakes\, floods and windstorms can cause significant damage to structures\, posing serious risks to occupants. Buildings should therefore be assessed for hazards following a disaster\, to determine whether they can be safely entered or occupied. \nAs professionals may not be immediately available to evaluate the structure\, it is important for building owners/occupants to have the skills and training necessary to conduct a Rapid Damage Assessment. B.C. Housing’s Rapid Damage Assessment program is designed to provide non-professionals with the basic skills to identify unsafe conditions in wood frame\, masonry and concrete structures caused by floods\, earthquakes or windstorms. \nJoin DEEP’s John Halldorson for an introduction to this program on Thursday\, March 5 at 7 p.m. at the Dunbar Community Centre (Room 202)\, 4747 Dunbar Street.
