Emergency Preparedness

At Stanford, planning ahead for emergencies is part of normal business planning and campus life, and all members of the Stanford community share a responsibility for preparedness. An emergency can strike anytime or anywhere, and a disaster will affect everyone. All employees and students have a personal responsibility for knowing what to do before, during, and after an emergency to protect their safety and their work. The School of Earth Sciences has put together list of resources to assist you in planning in the event of an emergency at work and at home.
