The results are in. It was a great 2016 Neighborhood Drill all across Newport Beach. CERTS partnered with non-CERT neighbors, NBFD and NBPD personnel visited most Neighborhood Command Posts, incidents flowed over HAM radio waves and digitally by text, email and voicemail. And last, but not least, we have photos galore! Take a look and see if you can find your neighbors. If you see someone you know, thank them for their service and willingness to prepare for the unexpected and help their families and neighbors.

We have an interesting 3-min video clip provided to NBCERT by Sandy Smolan. Her documentary, The Human Face of Big Data, talks in part about how helpful social media can be in disaster and emergency management.

If your Neighborhood CERT Team would like to make a video about preparedness planning to share on our NBCERT Channel, let us know.
