51
00:04:32.370 --> 00:04:34.470

54
00:04:41.520 --> 00:04:42.210
Keith Harrison: I hope so.

55
00:04:43.230 --> 00:04:45.210
jim murez: Maybe we can do, one in the summertime or something.

56
00:04:45.750 --> 00:04:48.690
Keith Harrison: Oh yeah absolutely by that time things should be.

57
00:04:49.560 --> 00:04:50.100
Much better.

00:04:52.710 --> 00:04:54.450
jim murez: let's say find another very.

59
00:04:55.950 --> 00:05:10.590
Keith Harrison: yeah well I got a feeling that we're moving from a pandemic to endemic responses so unless certain numbers are hit that show the medical system being overwhelmed we'll probably just talk our way through it.

60
00:05:12.030 --> 00:05:12.660
jim murez: I hope so.

61
00:05:14.970 --> 00:05:16.080
jim murez: I hope it's not too tough.

62
00:05:17.550 --> 00:05:27.060
Keith Harrison: Well that's always the the danger, but the good news is the vaccine seem to be doing pretty good jobs, keeping people out of being and I see you.

63
00:05:32.550 --> 00:05:33.390
Jose Morataya CERT Battalion 4: Good evening everyone.

00:06:05.220 --> 00:06:12.750
Anneke Campbell: Yes, hi hi Jose and everyone yeah I spoke with chin and he said you and he would kind of divide up and.

72
00:06:14.400 --> 00:06:23.910
Anneke Campbell: you're gonna you're gonna tell us about the trainings that the exercises coming up with great excitement and specifics.

73
00:06:24.660 --> 00:06:25.110
Okay.

74
00:06:26.430 --> 00:06:28.620
Jose Morataya CERT Battalion 4: always a pleasure always have fun in those.

75
00:06:28.890 --> 00:06:30.030
Anneke Campbell: yeah good.

76
00:06:30.480 --> 00:06:34.050
Jose Morataya CERT Battalion 4: Good, I just wanted to discuss with you a little bit before the meeting.

77
00:06:34.770 --> 00:06:35.010
You know.

78
00:06:36.030 --> 00:06:42.060
Jose Morataya CERT Battalion 4: possible scenarios because we've done two already in Venice, you know pop ups.

79
00:06:42.120 --> 00:06:44.400
Jose Morataya CERT Battalion 4: Where we're at it worked out really well.

80
00:06:45.720 --> 00:06:47.850
Jose Morataya CERT Battalion 4: One of the things that I was thinking is.

81
00:06:49.830 --> 00:06:51.960
Jose Morataya CERT Battalion 4: picking a particular neighborhood in Venice.

82
00:06:53.310 --> 00:06:54.870
Jose Morataya CERT Battalion 4: You know and trying to map that.

83
00:06:55.950 --> 00:07:07.620
Jose Morataya CERT Battalion 4: That particular area that would get us a little insight into the neighborhood give you guys an idea of what you need to do for each neighborhood advantage well.

84
00:07:08.010 --> 00:07:13.320
Anneke Campbell: That sounds great and Chris Santa I think the first thing we're going to do next is.

85
00:07:14.370 --> 00:07:15.810
Anneke Campbell: rylan just be.

86
00:07:16.230 --> 00:07:17.580
Anneke Campbell: Your LM thing.

87
00:07:17.790 --> 00:07:21.930
Anneke Campbell: And that could could lead right into that maybe double up.

88
00:07:23.310 --> 00:07:25.920
Anneke Campbell: You know, to do that so.

89
00:07:27.510 --> 00:07:29.280
Anneke Campbell: The rest of the committee feel about that.

90
00:07:31.980 --> 00:07:39.120
Keith Harrison: I again I think those are all really good things it's a matter of time, I know that.

91
00:07:39.120 --> 00:07:41.820
Keith Harrison: The island presentation we're trying to get people.

92
00:07:41.820 --> 00:07:50.400
Keith Harrison: To to start building their blocks and at this at the end of this i'm going to make the pitch that people were interested in in working with us.

93
00:07:51.750 --> 00:07:54.300
Keith Harrison: again send to my email address.

94
00:07:55.830 --> 00:08:08.520
Keith Harrison: The their emails and indicate what neighborhood I you know we talked about addresses, but I think people might still be hinky about that, but if they say you know I live in East fence, I live in canals I live in.

95
00:08:08.520 --> 00:08:19.140
Keith Harrison: Brazil restrict then we're can say that we're going to to convene times for people who have identified that to get together and start building that local team.

96
00:08:19.680 --> 00:08:32.640
Jose Morataya CERT Battalion 4: yeah because that's how that's how it's going to happen is a neighborhood at a time, you know, taking on the whole, when it's finished is quite large so if we can concentrate on one area and Venice and build out from there, that would be ideal.

97
00:08:33.210 --> 00:08:37.620
Keith Harrison: yeah so we're going to let people self identify interest and then work from there.

98
00:08:38.100 --> 00:08:38.310
yep.

99
00:08:39.420 --> 00:08:47.970
Keith Harrison: At the same time rylan will allow people to to do stuff, at least at the block level, and maybe feel confident enough to move up to the neighborhood.

100
00:08:48.780 --> 00:09:01.290
Jose Morataya CERT Battalion 4: yeah that would give people opportunity to use the radios as well, because we have to deploy out and walk the neighborhood you know a few blocks out and start.

101
00:09:02.520 --> 00:09:13.440
Jose Morataya CERT Battalion 4: Speaking through deployment desk and fan where you're at how you doing that kind of thing and getting people used to using the radios so that would be perfect and exercise.

102
00:09:14.400 --> 00:09:27.690
Anneke Campbell: I think that would be great and, if you would tell people if you're interested in being the first neighborhood to do this, you know, let, let us know right away and you'll be first.

103
00:09:28.140 --> 00:09:38.550
Jose Morataya CERT Battalion 4: yeah exactly So those are the type of things once you know we get violent completed in your areas, then we can go from there, and start building from there.

104
00:09:39.300 --> 00:09:47.700
Jose Morataya CERT Battalion 4: I mean it starts small and just spreads out, you know it takes time to it that doesn't happen over overnight either.

105
00:09:48.420 --> 00:09:53.400
Jose Morataya CERT Battalion 4: You know we've been added you've got you guys have gotten all six sessions already.

106
00:09:54.240 --> 00:10:01.260
Jose Morataya CERT Battalion 4: Know you're going to take them to the right land, because you know we couldn't do it with you guys at the beginning, because you were in the first groups that we did.

107
00:10:01.770 --> 00:10:11.190
Jose Morataya CERT Battalion 4: But now that Croissant is on that'd be great you know, and you guys could take riling and understand the mapping a little bit better so that'd be great great.

108
00:10:12.330 --> 00:10:25.140
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: And then everyone, I just want to do some like programming notes here so that we're all on the same page so christiane so you're going to have about a half hour, if you want it it's yours you'll be the first one up.

109
00:10:26.700 --> 00:10:36.060
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: And then we're going to do team mtp also for half hour and then who are we having to speak for the Red Cross.

Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: i'm just gonna say local chapter right now and then he can describe a little bit more detail.

116
00:11:17.310 --> 00:11:18.810
Nicolas Hippisley-Coxe: um oh right.

117
00:11:19.620 --> 00:11:20.340
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: If that's okay.

118
00:11:20.820 --> 00:11:23.100
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: um and then I have.

119
00:11:24.180 --> 00:11:27.090
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: Let me just promote some panelists here.

121
00:11:44.760 --> 00:11:54.630
Keith Harrison: Right, the that we've talked to them about being part of a Q amp a panel, so we could actually you know kick off the Q amp a at anytime after the three primary speakers.

122
00:11:58.020 --> 00:11:59.220
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: Yes, croissants.

123
00:12:00.660 --> 00:12:13.920
Crisanta: And so I noticed that the sharing screen is disable so would you guys, just like me to talk to my presentation we just fine either way some people prefer presentation, some people prefer that I engage the crowd so either way i'm perfectly.

124
00:12:14.400 --> 00:12:16.770
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: You know, and let me see if I can.

125
00:12:18.630 --> 00:12:21.120
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: Okay yeah i'm not seeing the option to be able to.

126
00:12:21.240 --> 00:12:21.780
jim murez: hang on.

127
00:12:21.900 --> 00:12:23.790
jim murez: I have to do, I think, to share screen.

128
00:12:24.870 --> 00:12:27.720
jim murez: yeah let me, let me do that everybody can share.

129
00:12:28.770 --> 00:12:32.130
Crisanta: And i'm like I said i'm good either way I can either.

130
00:12:32.160 --> 00:12:33.750
jim murez: Christina I will make it where.

131
00:12:34.830 --> 00:12:50.550
jim murez: Anybody that's a panelists can take over the sharing without one person having to stop sharing So if you want to take it over at some point you're you can always take it back correct yeah so you should be able to do that now try real quick and see if you can share.

132
00:12:51.090 --> 00:12:52.530
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: My sharing works great.

133
00:12:52.980 --> 00:12:54.930
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: I don't know what's wrong with croissants computer.

134
00:12:58.110 --> 00:12:58.620
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: it's a waste.

135
00:13:00.810 --> 00:13:03.450
jim murez: Are you suggesting she's selfish or something and won't share.

136
00:13:04.350 --> 00:13:05.700
No, I am so.

137
00:13:07.320 --> 00:13:10.380
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: i'm seeing that we don't have a chat function is that right.

138
00:13:10.830 --> 00:13:17.100
jim murez: I think that that is correct, let me see that there's a way of doing that.

139
00:13:18.120 --> 00:13:19.020
jim murez: More.

140
00:13:21.030 --> 00:13:27.090

141
00:13:27.570 --> 00:13:28.410
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: For yeah.

142
00:13:28.440 --> 00:13:29.550

143
00:13:31.020 --> 00:13:33.000
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: The neighborhood Councils typically have it turned off.

144
00:13:34.080 --> 00:13:34.380
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: yeah.

145
00:13:34.410 --> 00:13:41.040
jim murez: yeah I think that that's I think that that's something that doesn't has set when they set up the account for me.

jim murez: very dark, let me try again.

189
00:17:10.350 --> 00:17:16.680
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: So if all the guest speakers can keep track of time because I don't think that there's going to be a great way for me to signal you.

190
00:17:19.020 --> 00:17:23.220
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: But you know, maybe, if you can see me i'll do like a handout or something.

191
00:17:24.930 --> 00:17:25.920
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: Like a minute left.

192
00:17:26.580 --> 00:17:30.030
Crisanta: i'll put a timer on my I don't think I will go 30 minutes so.

193
00:17:31.080 --> 00:17:38.190
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: I think okay just let me know if you are done early you know i'll take your cues and we'll keep it rolling.

194
00:17:38.790 --> 00:17:39.060
Okay.

195
00:17:45.510 --> 00:17:49.230
jim murez: it's my reminder to tell me to start your meeting.

196
00:17:49.350 --> 00:18:07.080
Keith Harrison: yeah and well Chris Santa based on our call today will will give everybody a heads up that we're looking at having the rylan class on Saturday afternoon the Third, the third Saturday of March and to look for people to look for that announcement to sign up.

197
00:18:08.430 --> 00:18:15.420
Crisanta: And then, and then we'll circle back with you and whomever else to get it kind of highlight how you want that to go out right.

198
00:18:16.740 --> 00:18:23.220
Keith Harrison: yeah well, I mean, as I understand it, this is the Rhineland classes something you've done.

199
00:18:23.220 --> 00:18:24.690
Keith Harrison: With the mtp before.

200
00:18:25.080 --> 00:18:31.590
Keith Harrison: it's an actual class not just an intro so that people walk away able to go yeah I can do that.

201
00:18:32.700 --> 00:18:42.000
Crisanta: um yes and no it's, it is a class so yeah I can do that, but it isn't right and they still have to invite your neighbors to the homeless don't have time for one.

202
00:18:42.660 --> 00:18:58.320
Crisanta: or the other thing that is an option that we've been trying lately in some neighborhoods is we'll have three or four liters per block and i'll be in zoom and they'll be in their meetings like four different streets and they all run the actual rylan training.

203
00:18:58.500 --> 00:18:59.700
Crisanta: ya know.

204
00:18:59.790 --> 00:19:02.190
Keith Harrison: And I think that's a great option to talk about.

205
00:19:02.370 --> 00:19:02.790
Keith Harrison: You know.

206
00:19:02.940 --> 00:19:17.250
Keith Harrison: So people understand that when we have the class that can be reinforced, so that people can come in and say Okay, I feel confident, I can run away and do this for gee I want to sign up and have Chris Santa do it for me and my neighbor down the street.

207
00:19:17.760 --> 00:19:18.030
Okay.

237
00:22:38.310 --> 00:22:40.830
Keith Harrison: Thank you Christina Thank you all for attending.

238
00:22:42.270 --> 00:22:51.840
Keith Harrison: just wanted to give you an overview, you know what are we about why are we doing this, what is resiliency is the ability for our community to.

239
00:22:52.620 --> 00:23:00.630
Keith Harrison: respond to and disaster and recover from it, to have a chance to survive, not simply survive, but restore itself.

240
00:23:01.110 --> 00:23:11.040
Keith Harrison: Think of a basketball it's full of air, which is you know, training and and connections it bounces back and forth, even though you play a lot of pressure to it.

241
00:23:11.460 --> 00:23:24.570
Keith Harrison: But if it's not filled with teamwork, then it collapses, and it doesn't go and I want to give a couple of real life examples of what happens to communities of disaster, and that is in the town of paradise up in the.

242
00:23:25.770 --> 00:23:26.430
Keith Harrison: Beauty butte county.

243
00:23:28.440 --> 00:23:30.570
Keith Harrison: Massive fire loss of life.

244
00:23:31.860 --> 00:23:56.130
Keith Harrison: Three years later, only 16% well slightly over 16% of the homes have been reoccupied what else is happening in in Paradise as the recovery leader explained that there's been a consolidation of property, in other words, somebody buying up the land that other people have left.

245
00:23:57.390 --> 00:24:10.080
Keith Harrison: So paradise will still be there as a town paradise will still be there as a piece of paper as a nap but will it be a community and that's what we're about Community resiliency another point.

246
00:24:11.310 --> 00:24:20.520
Keith Harrison: In Alabama following Katrina a colleague of mine was down there surveying the recovery efforts and ran into a fellow with a suitcase.

247
00:24:21.090 --> 00:24:31.560
Keith Harrison: suitcase was personally filled with money because he was running around with a full suitcase amount of money earlier buying up land from people who had just given up.

248
00:24:32.430 --> 00:24:46.740
Keith Harrison: who were unable to handle the recovery process, and he was about ready as soon as that suitcase was empty to go back to Florida and bring back more money to continue the process, so those communities will exist.

249
00:24:46.890 --> 00:24:47.610
Keith Harrison: As roads.

250
00:24:47.640 --> 00:24:57.930
Keith Harrison: As signs, but not as communities anymore, so we are about how we invent as can be prepared individually to begin with.

251
00:24:58.290 --> 00:25:04.950
Keith Harrison: At our block level or neighborhood level Community wide so that we can be partners with each other and partners with the city.

252
00:25:05.670 --> 00:25:15.150
Keith Harrison: And the state and fema in the recovery and the resiliency of Venice and that's what we're talking about that's why it's serious and that's why.

253
00:25:15.570 --> 00:25:28.650
Keith Harrison: Our wonderful speakers are going to give you some great skills and and opportunities for training and they're all very important in fact this is part of an ongoing process we're going to be following up this town hall.

254
00:25:29.070 --> 00:25:38.730
Keith Harrison: With a series of trainings and and an exercise and then more planning and growth, because this is something that we need to have as an ongoing effort.

255
00:25:39.210 --> 00:25:46.290
Keith Harrison: And nobody has to be an expert in this, we have our experts here what the one thing you need to commit to.

256
00:25:46.740 --> 00:26:00.090
Keith Harrison: And it's not that you're going to be as as well trained to some of our search NTP volunteers or fire professionals or Red Cross professionals, as we, as we have on our speakers.

257
00:26:00.600 --> 00:26:07.200
Keith Harrison: Is that you're willing to work with your neighbors that you're going to reach out and become part of the Community.

258
00:26:07.800 --> 00:26:24.630
Keith Harrison: because that way you have two benefits one you know your neighbors on a day to day sunshine blue sky day or when it's a black sky day you still know them and you'll be able to make Venice resilient Thank you very much and i'll turn it back to our moderator.

259
00:26:26.130 --> 00:26:36.240
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: Okay, thank you Keith alright so first up is going to be croissants Gonzalez the new West bureau preparedness chief of the La emergency department.

260
00:26:37.590 --> 00:26:41.940
Crisanta: I good evening everybody, and thank you for having me i'm really excited to be a copy.

261
00:26:43.020 --> 00:26:50.640
Crisanta: of our programs called radio la neighborhood so i'm going to share my screen here for just a second, but I want to take a moment and ask you all.

262
00:26:51.120 --> 00:27:01.080
Crisanta: Just by using you're raising a hand button on your screen there raise your hand if you chose if you went out of your way to look for the neighborhood in which you live in.

263
00:27:07.170 --> 00:27:07.530
Crisanta: Right.

264
00:27:09.990 --> 00:27:19.200
Crisanta: So, none of you are living in the Venice area by force is what i'm looking at, so you can go ahead and put your hands down how many of you by show hands again.

265
00:27:20.700 --> 00:27:26.250
Crisanta: have invested a lot of time and energy into your home and your neighborhood.

266
00:27:30.240 --> 00:27:35.430
Crisanta: Okay, again, all the hands coming up that's kind of what I wanted to talk about as well.

267
00:27:36.660 --> 00:27:42.090
Crisanta: As kickstarter started off the conversation I don't know if she knows it but i'm actually from the county.

268
00:27:42.480 --> 00:27:49.620
Crisanta: I worked for the state of California department of water resources at the oroville dam so I was not only my.

269
00:27:50.070 --> 00:28:02.490
Crisanta: My children's godparents live in Paradise my friends live in paradise in in the middle of a little Community so not only was I devastated to hear about my friends up there losing their homes but luckily, not their lives.

270
00:28:03.300 --> 00:28:14.100
Crisanta: We also went through the oroville dam, which would have potential failure, and I was in Los Angeles, and my parents and my children were still in my home gridley California, which is right in the past, the waterway.

271
00:28:14.790 --> 00:28:28.500
Crisanta: So you county has kind of gone from a nondescript you know community and dependable lame lame emergency manager or two things about those communities that I want to talk about before I started presentation.

272
00:28:29.460 --> 00:28:43.350
Crisanta: The town of paradise and regalia had an emergency drill about I think was about three to six weeks before that, when came down the Kenyan that fire spread it, you know incredibly fast can any of you take a guess.

273
00:28:44.940 --> 00:28:46.560
Crisanta: raise your hand if you think.

274
00:28:46.680 --> 00:28:48.510
Crisanta: More than 100 people showed up for the draw.

275
00:28:51.450 --> 00:28:56.520
Crisanta: 50 to 120 to 50.

276
00:29:01.740 --> 00:29:02.910
Crisanta: Less than 20 shut up for.

277
00:29:05.310 --> 00:29:11.220
Crisanta: Those of you that raise your hand on less than 20 people in the Community of paradise in the Gala and showed up for the emergency drill is correct.

278
00:29:12.060 --> 00:29:16.680
Crisanta: Not even a month later, they had that devastating when they brought that fire right down that can.

279
00:29:17.100 --> 00:29:24.510
Crisanta: Northern California words to fires fires happened to us all the time, since the county county doesn't matter which can be shasta county to county ordinance the fires.

280
00:29:25.200 --> 00:29:34.410
Crisanta: But we had never seen anything so devastating as the velocity and speed of that fire and people because they weren't prepared and they didn't know where they're vulnerable neighbors.

281
00:29:35.220 --> 00:29:36.900
Crisanta: neighbors were not able to get away.

282
00:29:37.440 --> 00:29:42.300
Crisanta: So it'd, be it that just emphasize what keeps keep spoke about about getting to know your neighbors.

283
00:29:43.650 --> 00:29:57.600
Crisanta: And he's absolutely right, you don't have to be an expert in fact rylan is based upon gut instincts everything that you learn in the writing program is what people have already done during the summer or quake during the northridge earthquake it just instinctual.

284
00:29:58.650 --> 00:30:10.140
Crisanta: You know mode to go protect those around those you've invested time and money and those that wave when you're driving down the street that you know what their dog looks like maybe you haven't quite had a conversation a cup of coffee with them, but.

285
00:30:10.500 --> 00:30:15.570
Crisanta: You know them, you know you say hi if you get their mail you walk it over to them, just as coming soon.

286
00:30:16.020 --> 00:30:25.410
Crisanta: So those are the principles of violence is basically getting to know your neighbor and a more deeper level and then identifying what tools and resources, you have on your block.

287
00:30:25.770 --> 00:30:30.930
Crisanta: so that you can all come together and you're already prepared and you're already comfortable reaching out to those neighbors.

288
00:30:31.320 --> 00:30:43.410
Crisanta: So um with that i'm going to go ahead and start sharing my screen and i'm going to do a presentation, for you also we can talk about what Ryan is and how it would be a benefit to to invest your time.

289
00:30:46.290 --> 00:30:50.910
Crisanta: Let me know if you guys can all see that screen and everybody see my screen.

290
00:30:53.250 --> 00:30:53.970
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: Yes.

291
00:30:54.180 --> 00:30:55.410
Crisanta: Thank you so much.

292
00:30:56.520 --> 00:30:57.120
Crisanta: Right.

293
00:30:59.430 --> 00:31:03.810
Crisanta: So ready early neighborhood I picked up the console is, I am the division cheaper than a community.

294
00:31:04.170 --> 00:31:08.370
Crisanta: Engagement division for the city Los Angeles emergency management department our department.

295
00:31:08.670 --> 00:31:18.510
Crisanta: runs the emergency operation Center so in the event of a disaster or a large event large scale event, where the resources from lapd early fire or not enough they asked us to activate and we activate that.

296
00:31:18.750 --> 00:31:28.080
Crisanta: To help bring additional resources to support their efforts in any major incident that's my emergency job my day job is to go to the Community and.

297
00:31:28.590 --> 00:31:36.960
Crisanta: present two groups such as yours on how they can best be prepared, whether it's at a personal level, a neighborhood level and breathing working on a business plan as well.

298
00:31:48.000 --> 00:31:50.220
Crisanta: So a little bit about some numbers, we have here.

299
00:31:51.690 --> 00:31:56.670
Crisanta: How many of you are in the city of Los Angeles there's about 4 million people, approximately.

300
00:31:57.270 --> 00:32:07.860
Crisanta: Pre coated on any given day there's it could go up to 6 million people in the city of La because people would come up there as tourists or from working outside the city to work in the city or to go to school, there.

301
00:32:08.250 --> 00:32:15.570
Crisanta: Now, in comparison to those 4 million people, we have less than 10,000 lapd officers and less than 5000 firefighters.

302
00:32:15.960 --> 00:32:23.340
Crisanta: So that means that in in the event of a catastrophic level earthquake which, as you know, living in California southern California.

303
00:32:23.670 --> 00:32:28.560
Crisanta: it's not a matter of if we're going to have it it's a matter of will, I will pass you with this catastrophic event.

304
00:32:28.860 --> 00:32:38.430
Crisanta: The reason is catastrophic is because it's projected to be at an eight point or higher and it's supposed to start at the salton sea and run through the fault lines down into the ocean.

305
00:32:38.760 --> 00:32:49.560
Crisanta: Right in between the Ocean and the salton sea is the city of Los Angeles that's why it's been catastrophic level because of the amount of people that we have living in between that should be like.

306
00:32:50.730 --> 00:33:03.360
Crisanta: If, when when this catastrophic Level Event happens, what is the likelihood that 10,000 lapd officers are going to be able to get to everybody in our city and get to your front door and help you evacuated.

307
00:33:06.210 --> 00:33:13.680
Crisanta: it's it's, not because they don't want to be there it's, not because they chosen where to be they have priorities, what are the event now now take that in half.

308
00:33:14.790 --> 00:33:24.390
Crisanta: 4 million people, and we have less than 5000 firefighters that are going to be tasked with getting to the schools get into the hospitals get into the senior centers.

309
00:33:24.810 --> 00:33:33.030
Crisanta: on getting to all those priorities that they have to get to in order to stabilize are seeing same thing with lapd officer same thing with what our powers and thing with street services.

310
00:33:33.360 --> 00:33:36.270
Crisanta: we're all going to be working tirelessly to the emc.

311
00:33:36.780 --> 00:33:44.640
Crisanta: Through areas in our department to try and get our sitting stabilized and back on track and get the continuity of business on track, this is Keith mentioned with the other things.

312
00:33:45.090 --> 00:33:52.620
Crisanta: That are priority is, can we bounce back from this part of bouncing back from a catastrophic Level Event is make sure our neighborhood.

313
00:33:53.190 --> 00:34:01.950
Crisanta: Because if you as a neighborhood are prepared, and we know the back of our minds that we're all going to come together at some point we need to just handle the immediate.

314
00:34:02.580 --> 00:34:07.770
Crisanta: Situation and incident that we're all going to come together and we're going to bounce back and we're going to be resilient and we're going to be able to move forward.

315
00:34:08.370 --> 00:34:20.040
Crisanta: On, so this is part of our mitigation effort is to present this opportunity to you and see it and, hopefully, you see the benefit of doing this rally in your neighborhood and then also sharing your words of the other neighborhoods and also be prepared.

316
00:34:21.060 --> 00:34:26.070
Crisanta: So next slide here, and some of the things that you can do to be prepared.

317
00:34:26.910 --> 00:34:36.780
Crisanta: You can join your lapd neighborhood watch program and then organize your block with the reading early neighborhood program rylan and then also work with the lamb CERT NTP.

318
00:34:37.530 --> 00:34:43.800
Crisanta: program which is going to be presenting here after me so Those are some of the things that you can do to step by step, building process that you can do to be.

319
00:34:44.100 --> 00:34:52.980
Crisanta: prepared and it all has to do with getting to know your neighbors and getting to know your community and you're governmental groups that are supporting Philippe de la fire and.

320
00:34:54.510 --> 00:34:58.980
Crisanta: So a little bit about Riley Riley and consists of a 90 minute workshop.

321
00:34:59.730 --> 00:35:09.030
Crisanta: In the 90 minute workshop there's various ways we can call it, if you choose to have a 90 minute workshop in your home you invite your neighbors and people you want to invite are those if you walk out your front door.

322
00:35:09.390 --> 00:35:18.480
Crisanta: And you look to the left and to the right of you who can you get to in one hour or less that's that's your mouth that's your neighborhood now.

323
00:35:18.990 --> 00:35:24.990
Crisanta: Because the golden hours retirement isn't the hour in which someone's injured someone's gone into shock.

324
00:35:25.710 --> 00:35:34.650
Crisanta: If dog has gotten out, whatever that power line has gotten that you know fallen down all those things need to be mitigated quickly enough first hour.

325
00:35:35.040 --> 00:35:42.210
Crisanta: we've already discussed how responders are not going to be able to get them that first hour So who is going to be able to get there, and come together as a team and work on.

326
00:35:43.020 --> 00:35:51.180
Crisanta: The neighborhood neighbors it doesn't matter if it's an apartment building it doesn't matter if it's a condominium tracked as a matter of single family homes it doesn't matter your neighborhood your neighborhood.

327
00:35:51.660 --> 00:35:56.460
Crisanta: So that's how, in this workshop we identify what your math is who the people are.

328
00:35:56.910 --> 00:36:03.450
Crisanta: You can get to that first golden hour, and then we also work on a contact lens you all come together the city doesn't keep any of your information.

329
00:36:03.870 --> 00:36:13.830
Crisanta: This information stays within your group, so you identify who are the adults in the home for the children, what pets at home, what are the names of all the children and all the pets.

330
00:36:14.160 --> 00:36:21.090
Crisanta: Is there anybody with a disability, a functional leader and accessibility someone a vulnerable person who's going to need additional help.

331
00:36:21.660 --> 00:36:30.030
Crisanta: And then also if they're willing to share their email and a phone number that's added to the contact list, now the contact lists coordinate with a mapping it out so.

332
00:36:30.330 --> 00:36:35.730
Crisanta: For example, if it's a single family homes, we print out a map and we remember the homes one to 10 say.

333
00:36:36.120 --> 00:36:44.160
Crisanta: And then so for your contact list you would coordinate the House number one you know that's keeps house okay it's gives all the information that was filled out.

334
00:36:44.640 --> 00:36:53.640
Crisanta: house number two is christina's house Okay, that will go on so on and so forth until you recognize easily that when you go during a disaster, you know which house belongs to.

335
00:36:54.540 --> 00:37:03.870
Crisanta: Another thing that you're going to do in the island workshop is you're going to identify what skill set so there's also a page in your right hand path with that shows okay who's searching.

336
00:37:04.410 --> 00:37:12.270
Crisanta: Is there a doctor or a nurse on the street, is there a plumber, is there a carpenters electricians there's someone who has child care experience pet care experience.

337
00:37:12.870 --> 00:37:27.390
Crisanta: counseling experience de escalation experience all those things are listed and if the answer is Oh yes, no i'm sorry training, but you know police officer something house number four is searchable so you go through a new you identify all the skill sets in your name and.

338
00:37:28.590 --> 00:37:31.890
Crisanta: Then you go down to the to the next sentence Okay, what do we have on our block.

339
00:37:32.430 --> 00:37:43.140
Crisanta: That we can use in the event of an emergency and we have suggested items does anybody have chainsaws who has a generator no Okay, you have rope how long is that rope how many feet, do you have.

340
00:37:43.470 --> 00:37:51.780
Crisanta: And you start listing out everybody in the workshop starts listing out okay my chin has 50 feet of rope Patrick has a generator.

341
00:37:52.530 --> 00:38:03.000
Crisanta: You know Rico has walkie talkies so you go down, and you list everybody who has supplies duct tape crutches wheelchairs ace bandages you know.

342
00:38:03.480 --> 00:38:11.370
Crisanta: Whatever you have on the street, that you can use that way you already know, when it comes time exactly what's on your street in us what skills, you can use and what equipment.

343
00:38:13.680 --> 00:38:23.700
Crisanta: So next slide of what will help you do it'll help you learn the steps that you can do immediately after the catastrophic level earthquake.

344
00:38:24.540 --> 00:38:29.250
Crisanta: Or you can also use it in case you have to evacuate let's say you have a tsunami evacuation.

345
00:38:29.760 --> 00:38:39.210
Crisanta: or some kind of evacuation situation Well now, you know which vulnerable neighbors you need to go collect so instead of meeting at your gathering site, the way you practice for an earthquake.

346
00:38:39.600 --> 00:38:51.840
Crisanta: And then forming teams to break up into and to mitigate damages instead you're going to pull gather your gathering site you're going to use your checklist to see that everybody has a right home everybody's put the okay sign on their doors.

347
00:38:52.230 --> 00:38:59.130
Crisanta: And Oh, and where they're going so the one police or evacuation personal know they can see the rylan okay signs of everything's evacuated.

348
00:38:59.610 --> 00:39:10.230
Crisanta: And so that helps first responders as well this way you know okay so so you know it's nine months pregnant let's go get her make sure she has the right out with her, you know child so and so has a 90 year old.

349
00:39:11.070 --> 00:39:21.150
Crisanta: You know mom living with them that needs a functional need accessibility needs so you have a checklist and can make sure that everybody gets out and then double check that.

350
00:39:21.690 --> 00:39:32.040
Crisanta: So it's a way rylan is designed to just kind of in advance practice those steps that you know exactly who's going to I need help when and where, so you don't have to worry about it.

351
00:39:32.940 --> 00:39:44.340
Crisanta: In a time of a disaster, even though your natural instincts will kick in the more you practice it, the more routine it becomes so we also offer a drill So if you choose to have a drill.

352
00:39:45.390 --> 00:39:47.130
Crisanta: Within six months to a year.

353
00:39:48.450 --> 00:39:58.350
Crisanta: Within six months to a year, we can come back where we can download the cell phone numbers into our system, and we can automatically.

354
00:39:59.430 --> 00:40:05.670
Crisanta: show a drill food would be like you would get a text and a phone call or email whatever you choose if any one of those three or all three.

355
00:40:06.030 --> 00:40:12.330
Crisanta: But it's okay with this is the drill we're activating the violent, please, to step one, and so on and so forth, so.

356
00:40:12.990 --> 00:40:18.840
Crisanta: You know, once you have your rylan program in place, and then we can you know, will also be following up with their steps during the nt.

357
00:40:19.470 --> 00:40:24.870
Crisanta: keep in mind violence at a block level and introduce the next kind of geographical bigger step.

358
00:40:25.170 --> 00:40:34.410
Crisanta: So that's kind of the progress that i'm Ben has has made the decision to go in and we're so excited that we're part of this, so I hope that that's kind of a brief overview of.

359
00:40:34.860 --> 00:40:45.480
Crisanta: Of rylan and, but if you go to our website at ready le dot work there is a six minute video there that goes into a little bit more detail and i'm always available.

360
00:40:46.380 --> 00:41:03.990
Crisanta: If you have any questions key and Christina both have my email, and they have my phone number, so if you have any additional questions or need something clarified, please feel free to reach out to me at any time so with that i'm going to go ahead and stop sharing my presentation and.

361
00:41:05.100 --> 00:41:14.700
Crisanta: To just kind of talk about a little bit about how prepared you feel you are so right now by show of hands clicking you're raising your hand how many of you feel you're.

362
00:41:15.810 --> 00:41:26.880
Crisanta: pretty much prepared for tsunami and earthquake, you know power outage whatever it's going to take Andy so let's do that who have one hand up.

363
00:41:29.370 --> 00:41:31.440
Crisanta: To three.

364
00:41:33.300 --> 00:41:33.630
Okay.

365
00:41:34.680 --> 00:41:45.210
Crisanta: Okay, how many of you feel of those three hands keep your hand up if you feel that your neighbors right around your equally as prepared, if your neighbors are equally as prepared, as you are, and you think even if i'm not home.

366
00:41:45.540 --> 00:41:51.030
Crisanta: they're going to take care of my pets are going to take care of my needs i'm good, no matter what happens our neighborhood is good.

367
00:41:52.350 --> 00:41:56.130
Crisanta: One man standing Rico gross the only one who's got his hand up.

368
00:41:57.180 --> 00:42:02.070
Crisanta: So his neighborhood is obviously very prepared to speak on one SEC so.

369
00:42:02.460 --> 00:42:03.690
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: he's good that's right.

370
00:42:04.410 --> 00:42:05.100
Crisanta: that's right.

371
00:42:08.130 --> 00:42:11.400
Crisanta: Everything that you would learn in a rylan, we hope that you find it.

372
00:42:11.400 --> 00:42:17.550
Crisanta: beneficial and you think everybody on my street everybody on the three or four sheets around once you know that so that.

373
00:42:18.270 --> 00:42:31.380
Crisanta: when something happens chatsworth I did this in chatsworth chatsworth had power outage a windstorm in a power outage they were without power for about 14 to 16 hours they activated their island they realize that one of the neighbors Islami.

374
00:42:31.650 --> 00:42:40.920
Crisanta: oxygen machine and the other neighbor had a generator they use their island they took the generator over they checked on everybody under block and then made sure that everybody was okay.

375
00:42:41.220 --> 00:42:46.470
Crisanta: And they were able to get through that small incident together as a team and without ever having to call 911.

376
00:42:47.010 --> 00:42:54.930
Crisanta: So that's kind of our goal is to empower these neighborhoods your neighbor Venice neighborhoods to say in the event of anything.

377
00:42:55.920 --> 00:43:01.680
Crisanta: Without each other well good so that everybody on elven squares can have your hands right it's not just wrinkles.

406
00:47:01.110 --> 00:47:10.080
Chin Thammasaengsri: Mostly everybody knows that I could speak for about six and a half, maybe eight hours we don't want that tonight, so this is going to keep me on track just saying so.

407
00:47:10.830 --> 00:47:18.870
Chin Thammasaengsri: As I stated the neighborhood teen program I want to actually kind of continue, I want to consider this a continued discussion that Croissant started.

Chin Thammasaengsri: we're going to take it we're going to take it into that realm and we're going to show you how to do it we're going to guide you on how to do it so.

413
00:48:05.670 --> 00:48:20.610
Chin Thammasaengsri: that's kind of where we fit into the grand scheme of things so let's walk through this this this PowerPoint presentation and we will go from There again, this is the neighborhood teen program and this program actually evolved.

414
00:48:21.780 --> 00:48:32.130
Chin Thammasaengsri: In our in one of our certain italianate teen areas are certain tiny teeny area some 10 years ago and it was designed to be a program that would allow us to include.

415
00:48:32.760 --> 00:48:45.480
Chin Thammasaengsri: Members who have taken the CERT training, plus the members of our community who want to be disaster prepare but may not have the time for whatever reason, or the or the ability or the.

416
00:48:46.200 --> 00:48:57.420
Chin Thammasaengsri: Or the bodily bodily abilities to do everything we do insert, but we want to make sure that everybody is included, so this is neighborhood teen Program.

417
00:48:58.080 --> 00:49:05.790
Chin Thammasaengsri: And i'm switching event to to the next to the next slide, and this is the neighborhood teen program will.

418
00:49:06.600 --> 00:49:22.350
Chin Thammasaengsri: Basically what it is, is it's a natural evolution of Community emergency response team training it tastes the essential disaster preparedness principles, and this is key, we bring it back down the block level we're always was intended to be.

419
00:49:23.490 --> 00:49:33.540
Chin Thammasaengsri: We provide continuous guidance and support to our prospective team leaders, the people we are asking, like you, folks we're asking you guys to step up.

420
00:49:34.080 --> 00:49:45.780
Chin Thammasaengsri: In this phase that we're in now we've gone through the training phase, but now we want to go through the team team building so we're going to give you those tools to be to be successful at that.

421
00:49:48.360 --> 00:49:54.000
Chin Thammasaengsri: This is an image of actually have one of our one of our teams, actually, this is one of our oldest teams.

422
00:49:54.600 --> 00:50:05.970
Chin Thammasaengsri: The neighborhood teen program has been in existence as a program for about 10 years but out, but our Members, one of our one of our operations own South cards they.

423
00:50:06.450 --> 00:50:20.850
Chin Thammasaengsri: They really worked out the entire team process and that's how this program came to be so this is our oldest operating team, and this was their, this was an image of their of their pro of their.

424
00:50:21.810 --> 00:50:28.020
Chin Thammasaengsri: Exercise from just this past January so that's where the that's where this whole concept came from.

425
00:50:28.830 --> 00:50:48.810
Chin Thammasaengsri: So the current area teams, the current area teams and programs, we have include everything you see listed here and right down there right just above South park thing we do have Venice Venice was Venice is one of the areas through your Venice neighborhood Council, who has.

426
00:50:49.830 --> 00:50:57.420
Chin Thammasaengsri: pulled on to the actual program and actually they were one of our first couple of teams to come on once we reintroduce Program.

427
00:50:58.770 --> 00:51:11.160
Chin Thammasaengsri: And, as you know, it is denoted that this is a neighborhood Council supportive effort, of course, again, we thank our We thank our friends here at the Venice neighborhood Council for being part of that.

428
00:51:11.730 --> 00:51:20.370
Chin Thammasaengsri: Why yet another program, this is not another program, as I stated, we combine the best aspects of three existing programs in particular.

429
00:51:21.060 --> 00:51:34.770
Chin Thammasaengsri: This program is easy to implement but it's comprehensive and but it's comprehensive and turnkey we can put it in pretty much any community, but what we do is we customize it to that Community because Venice is a unique community.

430
00:51:35.880 --> 00:51:48.720
Chin Thammasaengsri: The stuff that works in Venice may not work in my community of incident where I am or moderate hills were patrick's residing right now, so it is easy to implement and turnkey, but it is customizable.

431
00:51:49.740 --> 00:51:58.950
Chin Thammasaengsri: it's easy it's an easy to it's an easy program to use for untrained neighbors again, as I said, who don't have the time to take full search train.

432
00:51:59.430 --> 00:52:15.630
Chin Thammasaengsri: But what we want to do is make sure that everybody in everybody who participates in this program is at least competent enough to be able to implement a lot of the things that you see in your rylan program so that's what this program is all about.

433
00:52:19.290 --> 00:52:28.410
Chin Thammasaengsri: And the programs involved I reveal the top three the Community emergency response team of course that's all that's all of us, Patrick myself Jose.

434
00:52:29.640 --> 00:52:32.370
Chin Thammasaengsri: ready or Los Angeles neighborhood this that's.

435
00:52:33.960 --> 00:52:52.140
Chin Thammasaengsri: that's what we just talked about, and of course neighborhood watch neighborhood watch is definitely a component of this and, by the way these three these three agencies and three programs were part of the original conception of the neighborhood teen Program.

436
00:52:57.000 --> 00:53:05.670
Chin Thammasaengsri: created in 2010 again in our south la area by satanic coordinator Larry Bo gas who many of you may not remember, but he is.

437
00:53:06.090 --> 00:53:20.220
Chin Thammasaengsri: still very much a popular name our battalion 18 area which city where I am the pilot program created 12 organized neighborhoods at the outset, and at that time came, with support from five neighborhood Councils.

438
00:53:22.980 --> 00:53:28.380
Chin Thammasaengsri: Of course, in the modern age we've got Venice neighborhood Council on board, along with several others.

439
00:53:29.490 --> 00:53:34.620
Chin Thammasaengsri: What are the neighborhood teams you guys are going to be core response in any disaster.

440
00:53:35.670 --> 00:53:47.640
Chin Thammasaengsri: croissants talked about the prop talked about what you guys do and Ryan all that planning defining your neighborhood defining areas where you're going to be defining creating teams.

441
00:53:49.050 --> 00:53:58.170
Chin Thammasaengsri: she's telling you and we're telling you you guys are going to be core response in any disasters and neighborhood teen your grassroots in origin.

442
00:53:58.770 --> 00:54:03.330
Chin Thammasaengsri: Which means you're from the neighborhood level and that's how we're that's how we're approaching it obviously.

443
00:54:03.810 --> 00:54:12.150
Chin Thammasaengsri: it's built by Community members Community members and stakeholders you like to say that neighborhood Councils like Community members and stakeholders.

444
00:54:12.660 --> 00:54:23.940
Chin Thammasaengsri: and its neighbors helping neighbors one of the things that I always talk about is that need to know each other, we don't always like that idea because we become a very private society, for whatever reason.

445
00:54:24.420 --> 00:54:31.410
Chin Thammasaengsri: But we realize very quickly, I think, for Santa talked about that a little bit earlier brushed on it that.

446
00:54:32.100 --> 00:54:36.870
Chin Thammasaengsri: You know, in order to be prepared, you have to have to connect with your neighbors.

447
00:54:37.140 --> 00:54:46.170
Chin Thammasaengsri: And you can see what happens when you have a few people who are prepared, and then a mass that's not prepared doesn't always go well for certain areas and find that out very quickly.

448
00:54:46.620 --> 00:54:59.400
Chin Thammasaengsri: And of course it's supported and guided by our Community emergency response team coordinators like Jose Jose is one of the is one is going to be one of the guiding force your years, one of the guy forces.

449
00:55:00.510 --> 00:55:07.290
Chin Thammasaengsri: Here, and what he's done with Venice just in this very short time, since we completed our lecture series with them.

450
00:55:07.740 --> 00:55:25.890
Chin Thammasaengsri: we've had exercises at penn more part we've actually had a couple of exercises depends on our part and he'll talk about those a little bit later once I finish the finish this portion of the presentation so we're already doing so we're already giving you that support and guidance.

451
00:55:30.030 --> 00:55:36.780
Chin Thammasaengsri: And what we do, unlike, unlike the other programs we're not gone yet and we're not going to be gone.

452
00:55:37.290 --> 00:55:44.940
Chin Thammasaengsri: One of the things we continue to do with Dennis and our other our other communities as we continue to offer regular online training.

453
00:55:45.210 --> 00:55:54.990
Chin Thammasaengsri: online training for now once we get out from under the specter of coven will do a lot more in person training that's going to give you guys, a lot of hands on that's going to be good for you guys.

454
00:55:55.320 --> 00:56:02.640
Chin Thammasaengsri: But we have monthly training classes taught by our knowledgeable CERT coordinators, we also have a YouTube channel where you can see.

455
00:56:03.120 --> 00:56:13.590
Chin Thammasaengsri: A lot of the lot of the sessions we've done along with other information videos and the topics very because we have a number of different people come into our group.

456
00:56:14.520 --> 00:56:20.190
Chin Thammasaengsri: We have topics that that are interesting for the beginner to the end and intermediate to the advanced.

457
00:56:21.030 --> 00:56:33.330
Chin Thammasaengsri: We also talk about team leadership organization two way radios disaster medical and we also review, a lot of our step by step guides which is going to help you guys get your programs up and going and functional.

458
00:56:36.660 --> 00:56:43.530
Chin Thammasaengsri: And, of course, Anna and many of you folks in bed is remember these these images, this is just an image from one of our.

459
00:56:44.130 --> 00:56:56.940
Chin Thammasaengsri: One of our early lecture sessions that we did with the team here in Venice and, in fact, those lecture sessions which I mentioned cover a variety of basic topics like basic personal preparedness.

460
00:56:57.600 --> 00:57:05.760
Chin Thammasaengsri: Disaster first day responding to a disaster in your Community two way radios, which is a really big part of what we do.

461
00:57:06.780 --> 00:57:18.240
Chin Thammasaengsri: We also have the riling introduction and we also have neighborhood awareness and security, and all of those all of those sessions are taught by subject matter experts in their areas.

462
00:57:18.540 --> 00:57:35.070
Chin Thammasaengsri: With the rylan we're always happy to have cusato with us doing the overview of that and here in Venice, we had our lapd who was involved, so you can see, it all comes together, so we did that for about six months and then right after that and started getting into the activities.

463
00:57:37.830 --> 00:57:48.480
Chin Thammasaengsri: One of the things we're going to do with you folks and we I think we've talked about it as as late as today and it's a process that continues, we want to help you set up those staging air.

464
00:57:49.050 --> 00:57:54.750
Chin Thammasaengsri: And I actually think we're going to read, I actually think titled search staging areas to neighborhood.

465
00:57:55.320 --> 00:58:03.030
Chin Thammasaengsri: neighborhood team staging areas but we're going to work with your neighborhood team leaders of those people who we hope will come from your ranks.

466
00:58:03.720 --> 00:58:14.550
Chin Thammasaengsri: to locate and make a Greens for those neighborhood staging areas, the reason why we say make agreements because we're not putting not necessarily putting those staging areas in places like fire stations.

467
00:58:14.850 --> 00:58:25.950
Chin Thammasaengsri: Schools and everything like that the reason why we don't emphasize on those sites is because, if there is a disaster access to those sites by people like us will be extremely limited.

468
00:58:27.000 --> 00:58:43.950
Chin Thammasaengsri: So what we do is we reach out to area businesses houses of worship different things like that we found a lot of a lot of great response, and we will assist you with putting together the agreements that go with those with that go with those staging area.

469
00:58:44.970 --> 00:58:53.580
Chin Thammasaengsri: And what we also break out staging area kits This is something that will be talking to Venice about once we determine where the stage here is our.

470
00:58:54.060 --> 00:59:04.380
Chin Thammasaengsri: But those staging area kits which will be for use by members of our neighborhood teams include maps forums clipboards predefined damage assessment areas I maps.

471
00:59:05.550 --> 00:59:17.400
Chin Thammasaengsri: Commercial radios which you guys can use to have at least dependable two way communication because guess what guys we don't have our cell phones and we won't be able to like.

472
00:59:17.850 --> 00:59:28.050
Chin Thammasaengsri: Let our fingers do the dialing so we're going to do two way radios and, of course, medical resupply such as bandage and dresses for our teams were going out into the Community.

473
00:59:33.150 --> 00:59:45.300
Chin Thammasaengsri: This is an image from one of our monthly pop up neighborhood exercises again we have done this in the Venice Community we've done it in penn moorpark and Keith Annika.

474
00:59:46.800 --> 00:59:52.110
Chin Thammasaengsri: Along with other members of the team from Venice other stakeholders from Venice.

475
00:59:53.460 --> 01:00:00.000
Chin Thammasaengsri: And and other places we've come out we've had a really good time in the park is a chance one to get to know each other.

476
01:00:01.020 --> 01:00:09.090
Chin Thammasaengsri: There have been great connections of people in neighborhood just from going to these particular problems and you get to test the skills.

477
01:00:09.510 --> 01:00:17.940
Chin Thammasaengsri: That we've spent six months teaching you through zoom you know these skills don't these skills get better when you're able to actually practice.

478
01:00:18.870 --> 01:00:29.490
Chin Thammasaengsri: The classroom part is part one, this is part two, and what we do is we get you out on a regular basis to practice your skills and keep them and keep them sharp.

479
01:00:33.840 --> 01:00:42.030
Chin Thammasaengsri: drills and exercises again test your neighborhoods team built test your neighborhood team's ability to form up and respond during a disaster.

480
01:00:43.290 --> 01:00:45.180
Chin Thammasaengsri: you've got step by step guides.

481
01:00:46.350 --> 01:00:55.380
Chin Thammasaengsri: That will help you do that setting up staging areas performing damage assessments communicate with two way radios I am actually happy to say that.

482
01:00:55.740 --> 01:01:05.700
Chin Thammasaengsri: With some with one of the exercises, one of the exercises, we did right here in Venice, we were able to cover a lot of that with groups going out as teams.

483
01:01:13.980 --> 01:01:14.580
Chin Thammasaengsri: alrighty.

494
01:02:34.410 --> 01:02:44.850
Chin Thammasaengsri: I call it the CERT like training we give you some of those basic skills and we really and we really look at it as a springboard for you to later on, take the entire CERT Program.

495
01:02:45.780 --> 01:02:59.190
Chin Thammasaengsri: Many of our many of our people who have come through the neighborhood teen program started out as neighborhood TEAM members were just doing a lot of the exercises with us and they say hey I want to take that CERT program and they end up bumping up doing.

496
01:03:00.390 --> 01:03:09.330
Chin Thammasaengsri: The other the other key component from our from our great friends over at the La emergency management part of it is the island program ready your Los Angeles neighborhood.

497
01:03:10.320 --> 01:03:22.470
Chin Thammasaengsri: You guys in Venice are already getting ready to do that, which is perfect and, of course, always partnering with our good friends at the lapd, and that is me with my senior officer, he is my friend.

501
01:04:06.360 --> 01:04:19.380
Jose Morataya CERT Battalion 4: identify by saying mapping this not just saying you know get to know your neighbor next door and all that which is great, but also identifying hazards in the neighborhoods also.

502
01:04:20.430 --> 01:04:32.430
Jose Morataya CERT Battalion 4: trying to figure out where a staging and good staging area would be that kind of thing so you're kind of exploring the neighborhood and mapping it along there and then, at the same time, you can get.

503
01:04:33.240 --> 01:04:41.070
Jose Morataya CERT Battalion 4: Radio practice in because we're going to deploy out once again in teams, but this time is going to be to try to map the area.

Chin Thammasaengsri: When we get with you will take you in a deeper dive so you'll have you'll you'll get that greater appreciation of just how important mapping and area is.

509

542
01:10:24.120 --> 01:10:31.620
Armando Hogan: You know, with Croissant and all of those folks from emt everyone has some background insert our Community emergency response team.

543
01:10:31.950 --> 01:10:38.280
Armando Hogan: So I do appreciate that, but one thing I always want to point out, and you guys have heard my version of three pillars.

544
01:10:38.610 --> 01:10:46.650
Armando Hogan: One is self preparedness then family preparedness then Community because I guarantee you you're not going to go out in the Community.

545
01:10:46.890 --> 01:10:59.010
Armando Hogan: If you and your family are not prepared to do so, so don't forget that when, if you all can get together and do that within your Community that's great, and what that is is you all, are a force multiplier.

546
01:10:59.550 --> 01:11:07.230
Armando Hogan: For us so i'm going to just wanted to share that with you i'm just honored to be on the line here with all of you and Keith Thank you.

547
01:11:08.070 --> 01:11:19.170
Armando Hogan: Christina want to thank you for your great moderation so i'm going to give it over to a captain gross number one is better looking in me and number two is probably better informed so Sir you're up.

548
01:11:20.010 --> 01:11:24.450
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: Well, you can see, chief, I have to have a prop in the background to make myself look good so.

549
01:11:25.590 --> 01:11:29.550
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: I appreciate that and just before I start speaking i'm going to be very brief.

550
01:11:30.090 --> 01:11:41.130
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: Because I think a lot of the presenters nailed it when I say a lot, I mean all of you, but to chief hogan Thank you and I think most of you that know him and his commitment.

551
01:11:42.180 --> 01:11:44.250
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: I would be lucky to achieve.

552
01:11:45.660 --> 01:11:52.050
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: Some of the things he's accomplished, and when I say some of the things I literally mean some of them I would be lucky.

553
01:11:53.250 --> 01:12:01.290
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: That being said, and I know chief will reiterate this as games can already said it to the group that's here tonight, thank you.

554
01:12:03.120 --> 01:12:06.660
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: ourself our families our communities.

555
01:12:07.740 --> 01:12:15.690
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: We can't survive, we will not survive and make it and prosper without each other.

556
01:12:16.410 --> 01:12:30.480
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: I feel, and I, hopefully, I don't offend anybody with the statement just text me you don't have my number but text me if this offends you I am incredibly blessed to be a part of the people that I get to work with every day.

557
01:12:31.890 --> 01:12:38.760
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: Patrick chin chief the Members on this meeting that i've spoken to privately already.

558
01:12:39.690 --> 01:12:52.410
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: working for the department i'm at the fire station today i'm incredibly blessed to be able to do what to serve and what this comes down to and croissants knocked it out of the park is our ability to serve.

559
01:12:53.460 --> 01:13:00.960
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: We know how to take care of herself and if we don't have some tools for you, you know how they ability good night I saw that.

560
01:13:01.950 --> 01:13:10.770
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: We know how to take care of our families, and if you don't we have some tools for that if you want to get a little adventurous.

561
01:13:11.220 --> 01:13:21.120
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: And you want to protect your greater neighborhood we have tools for that, and if you want to respond with LSD or at least work hand in hand.

562
01:13:21.600 --> 01:13:30.480
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: guess what we have some tools for that, and if you want to be wild and crazy like me yeah I probably have a badge for you it's going to take some serious commitment.

563
01:13:31.260 --> 01:13:43.500
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: But whatever shape that looks like we can get you there and really that's the greatest blessing, I think we have the amount of tools and resources, the commitment that we're seeing from communities.

564
01:13:43.860 --> 01:13:51.090
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: and peoples around our neighborhoods their level and desire want to become resilient.

565
01:13:51.810 --> 01:13:56.910
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: Is astronomical and let me throw this out at you for a second here Cassandra kind of touched upon a second.

566
01:13:57.300 --> 01:14:04.410
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: When she performed moment when she talked about your neighborhoods and had you raise your hand and, yes, my neighborhoods prepared i'm very fortunate I have.

567
01:14:04.650 --> 01:14:15.450
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: Two firefighters police officer, I have a da sheriff officer that are all my neighbors were incredibly protected, can we be more organized, yes, but that's not the point.

568
01:14:16.740 --> 01:14:18.120
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: The point is simply this.

569
01:14:19.290 --> 01:14:33.630
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: We are a whole community, and when we prepare practice and expand upon that on our own individual talents we get that resiliency and again back to that question, think of.

570
01:14:35.430 --> 01:14:45.180
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: i'm not trying to ask anybody's opinion on vaccinations or the pandemic or anything like that think about how it's changed your lives, think about us.

571
01:14:45.630 --> 01:14:55.350
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: Right now on this meeting and a year ago, what this would have looked like I probably would still be muted and you guys would be like Rico you're on mute figure it out.

572
01:14:56.310 --> 01:15:19.290
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: Our level our paradigm shift of training has been monumental imagine if we employ some of the small tasks that Patrick that chin has that Chris Santa an md has or even la FT or lapd and I know if they were here, they would reiterate the same thing.

573
01:15:20.820 --> 01:15:23.190
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: And the last part i'll leave you with is.

574
01:15:24.690 --> 01:15:33.330
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: My position, and I should have started out with this hi i'm Rico i'm this disaster preparedness officer for la city fire department.

575
01:15:33.870 --> 01:15:46.800
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: That means we have 3600 employees, I have a team of about 10 including a captain and firefighters and then we have a few hundred CERT TEAM members every which.

576
01:15:47.310 --> 01:16:02.580
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: are part of our communities, I and all of my team are part of our communities CERT initial inception was goal was to do what.

577
01:16:03.480 --> 01:16:08.760
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: Provide resiliency back into the hands of the Community.

578
01:16:09.630 --> 01:16:26.940
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: To me that's my number one goal as a disaster preparedness officer do I work with the highest levels of emergency management and my command staff absolutely every day, but we are family first, so we can take care of each other to be able to take care of our communities.

579
01:16:28.590 --> 01:16:40.140
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: If you guys have any questions for me about how you get from point A to point Z all y'all know how to get Ahold of me, because I think I contacted me already a few times and obviously i'm here tonight, so you got me here.

580
01:16:40.650 --> 01:16:51.660
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: But you know how enthusiastic I am you know I don't sleep much and i'm available for you, and again I told you, I wanted to be brief, that was longer than I thought it was going to be, but sometimes I get a little excited.

581
01:16:52.980 --> 01:17:06.810
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your community, how can we help you be more resilient with that it comes with a clause.

582
01:17:07.470 --> 01:17:20.940
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: If you ask Rico to put you to work i'm gonna put you to work and i'm going to require you to take care of yourself, so you can take care of other people I would say that's my only clause so if you don't want to do any of that.

583
01:17:26.220 --> 01:17:31.830
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: i'll be over there, if you like, that you know where i'm at chief anything else I left out.

584
01:17:36.360 --> 01:17:44.010
Armando Hogan: No, Sir, not a thing, and I just want to echo all of Captain grossest sentiments, you know I just.

585
01:17:44.940 --> 01:17:55.170
Armando Hogan: When we talk about partnering, that is what we're here to do is to partner, so the right hand has to know what the left hand is doing and I, like everything that we're talking about doing.

586
01:17:55.560 --> 01:18:07.980
Armando Hogan: it's The challenge for us is going to be, how do we get everyone in alignment, so the right hand knows what the left hand is doing and the way we're doing that is what you see happening here tonight information being shared.

587
01:18:08.670 --> 01:18:14.430
Armando Hogan: behavior being modeled in terms of what can take place and then showing the partnerships that we have.

588
01:18:14.760 --> 01:18:24.690
Armando Hogan: Just within our sphere of influence as it relates to La fd lapd emergency management department and then all of the hybrids that come from that so.

589
01:18:25.350 --> 01:18:41.880
Armando Hogan: that's all I have, because I can see the fun meter is just about peg so I don't want to abuse that any longer so i'm going to turn it back over to those in charge, and then let us know if you have any questions and hopefully we can answer those for you, thank you.

590
01:18:43.710 --> 01:18:46.980
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: Perfect Thank you so much, and you know.

591
01:18:47.040 --> 01:18:52.620
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: Like you said why hogan you know let's start understanding neighborhood resiliency as those.

592
01:18:52.620 --> 01:18:59.790
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: three pillars, you know the self preparedness the family preparedness and the Community preparedness, they all intertwined.

593
01:19:00.990 --> 01:19:12.960
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: So I see that challenge pack so we're going to have you be a speaker and book in the town hall before the Q amp a session, and just as a reminder he's the Managing Director of the local chapter of the Red Cross.

594
01:19:13.650 --> 01:19:23.400
Sean Inoue: yeah Thank you all, and thanks for your patience and flexibility i've got a one year old, and I am I am officially the Sandman so i'm the one who puts her down to sleep every night, so I gotta like family and I appreciate it, thank you.

595
01:19:23.460 --> 01:19:26.010
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: that's pretty much the definition of resilience right there.

596
01:19:26.040 --> 01:19:36.990
Sean Inoue: I mean it's just that's my job, so I gotta I gotta train my wife up on that, so that if, for some reason i'm out in the Community, she can do that part she does all the feeding and all the heavy lifting I just got to put her down the easy part right.

597
01:19:38.310 --> 01:19:44.370
Sean Inoue: Now, really, thank you for having me more importantly, thank you for focusing on resiliency I love what everybody's been saying and.

598
01:19:44.880 --> 01:19:56.460
Sean Inoue: it's a piggyback on it, we live in a culture that's very responsive that's what we do we respond to things thing an emergency pops up somebody gets sick we think about how can we, how can we fix it versus hacking prevent this in the future.

599
01:19:56.820 --> 01:20:06.900
Sean Inoue: I love that all of you are thought leaders and really invested in shifting this concept to preparedness, how do we prevent, how do we become more resilience.

600
01:20:07.770 --> 01:20:13.350
Sean Inoue: Particularly in areas that haven't really thought of this before right it's I love the three pillars that we just talked about.

601
01:20:13.620 --> 01:20:18.180
Sean Inoue: And all the things all of you are focusing on and my job is to find out how we can support that.

602
01:20:18.450 --> 01:20:27.210
Sean Inoue: Right and communities that already have programs that are focusing on this or communities that are more vulnerable and haven't had the type of infrastructure you're talking about putting together because.

603
01:20:27.510 --> 01:20:32.460
Sean Inoue: As our first speaker is that Croissant spoke about when that catastrophic one happens.

604
01:20:33.120 --> 01:20:44.850
Sean Inoue: People aren't coming people aren't coming right away it's your immediate neighbors those the folks that you got to be really rely on to make sure you can take care of yourself and your community until his response can get there it's a really scary thing.

605
01:20:45.990 --> 01:20:50.700
Sean Inoue: But there are people here to help you do that what's the really great thing the Red Cross is one of them.

606
01:20:51.000 --> 01:20:56.970
Sean Inoue: So they've already talked about map your neighborhood they've already talked about the incredible programs like rylan that are going to help you get there.

607
01:20:57.180 --> 01:21:01.920
Sean Inoue: I don't want to build upon that I don't want to you know train them on that as well, I will talk about two other things.

608
01:21:02.670 --> 01:21:13.200
Sean Inoue: Blood blood, the big thing right everyone's heard about this, everyone knows that there's an emergency need for it right now it's another one of those things that goes by the wayside, we don't think about it until we need it or somebody in our families.

609
01:21:13.920 --> 01:21:15.030
Sean Inoue: So the first thing I want to.

610
01:21:15.690 --> 01:21:23.970
Sean Inoue: I guess pitch on the Red Cross site is try and sign up to give blood, if you yourself are not eligible trying to encourage somebody else aside and go give blood nearby.

611
01:21:24.180 --> 01:21:29.220
Sean Inoue: If appointments are full the next two weeks, because people are responding to the call to action fantastic.

612
01:21:29.610 --> 01:21:36.930
Sean Inoue: try and make sure our hospitals have the blood, they need when those emergencies take place, because if it happens and there's a call for blood.

613
01:21:37.170 --> 01:21:43.410
Sean Inoue: it's too late at that point we already saw UCLA harbor had to shut down last month because of their blood shortage which the first time.

614
01:21:43.680 --> 01:21:49.380
Sean Inoue: they've had to do that in a decade what's the pretty scary thing, the reason why that blood exists on those shelves for those patients.

615
01:21:50.040 --> 01:22:01.680
Sean Inoue: because all of you there's no substitute for it, as far as science and medicine has come, the only thing that we can give folks who need some form of blood, whether it's whole blood platelets flat plasma.

616
01:22:02.190 --> 01:22:09.000
Sean Inoue: Is because people are rolling up their sleeves and getting part of themselves away it's a big part of preparedness it's a big part of resiliency.

617
01:22:09.900 --> 01:22:18.630
Sean Inoue: there's a ton of eligibility around it obviously Red Cross blood org is my pitch for the Blind side right when it comes to disaster and preparedness.

618
01:22:19.530 --> 01:22:26.700
Sean Inoue: there's always a ton of things that we focus on right, one of the things that most people might not know of, or that actually a few people on this call may know of.

619
01:22:26.970 --> 01:22:32.220
Sean Inoue: his home fires it's the number one thing we respond to someone's house burns down at two in the morning.

620
01:22:32.430 --> 01:22:37.560
Sean Inoue: We like to partner with our local fire departments to make sure we can get out there and find a place for them short term.

621
01:22:37.800 --> 01:22:43.230
Sean Inoue: We can connect them with our long term agencies that are going to get them back on their feet provide direct financial assistance.

622
01:22:43.500 --> 01:22:53.370
Sean Inoue: we're also going out into these communities to make sure we can install fire alarms our partners right and some of our areas that may not have had access to things like this before, because, again we don't we don't think about it every day.

623
01:22:54.300 --> 01:23:00.630
Sean Inoue: The last thing I want to pitch on this call is something that all everybody's already talked about a little bit make a plan.

624
01:23:01.170 --> 01:23:08.850
Sean Inoue: i've worked at the Red Cross for seven years now, it took me four years to make a plan, and it was the first time I went out to a disaster.

625
01:23:09.600 --> 01:23:19.320
Sean Inoue: That I was really reminded and it's just a testament right like I wake up and i'm bombarded with make a plan prepare give blood, I know I don't think about that, when I wake up it's just.

626
01:23:19.650 --> 01:23:26.310
Sean Inoue: Maybe i'm just terrible at it it's just all of you are great at this is one of those things where we will again live in this very reactive culture.

627
01:23:26.550 --> 01:23:34.920
Sean Inoue: So we need to be bombarded with it, we need ambassadors in our Community like you to amplify this need and bring resiliency to your into your networks right.

628
01:23:35.220 --> 01:23:39.660
Sean Inoue: to your families to your individuals really to your neighborhood you are the folks.

629
01:23:40.020 --> 01:23:45.450
Sean Inoue: that are going to make the biggest difference here we're here to support right, we can really kind of provide those materials, whether it's.

630
01:23:45.780 --> 01:23:51.600
Sean Inoue: Your build a kits right we have like those take home go bags where it's got this checklist of all these things you can put.

631
01:23:51.960 --> 01:23:59.310
Sean Inoue: In this little plastic bag like your important documents or photocopies of them you throw them in the freezer, just in case knock on wood there's ever some sort.

632
01:23:59.640 --> 01:24:06.660
Sean Inoue: of home fire, because if you don't have a fire see if that's the second plus pace second best place to put your important documents right so.

633
01:24:07.500 --> 01:24:19.920
Sean Inoue: Things like this, our website, I am not the subject matter expert in preparedness nor my and response i'll leave that to Nicholas here, he is the my resident and regional partner for that.

634
01:24:21.330 --> 01:24:24.870
Sean Inoue: But, quite frankly I can't emphasize it enough make a plan.

635
01:24:25.320 --> 01:24:31.080
Sean Inoue: Regardless of where you live, what you do it's never going to hurt it's only going to make sure you're a little bit more resilient when that.

636
01:24:31.410 --> 01:24:35.910
Sean Inoue: happens, or even when something small happens and again don't wait until.

637
01:24:36.360 --> 01:24:43.650
Sean Inoue: Until you hear about another big fire another earthquake at that point it's too late, take take the time, right after this call to one of the incredible things.

638
01:24:43.890 --> 01:24:51.000
Sean Inoue: That all these speakers have talked about sign up for riling talk to you know, set up a time to take a class for cpr first aid.

639
01:24:51.390 --> 01:24:59.010
Sean Inoue: i'm sorry that's another Red Cross thing tons of trainings and services right like my mother it's going to get a little dark my mother passed away from a heart attack.

640
01:24:59.370 --> 01:25:02.790
Sean Inoue: If the people that were immediately around her new cpr.

641
01:25:03.240 --> 01:25:09.660
Sean Inoue: She would have most more than likely been able to restart her heart she they were able to get her heart started again with first spotters got there.

642
01:25:09.900 --> 01:25:14.520
Sean Inoue: She would have been with us longer I cannot tell you how important it is in the rare instances, you need it.

643
01:25:14.940 --> 01:25:20.190
Sean Inoue: To be prepared to know that just basic skill can literally be the difference between life and death, somebody.

644
01:25:20.490 --> 01:25:32.280
Sean Inoue: So whatever it is just pledged to do one thing after this call sign up for a class make a list just take taking inventory of your neighbors and I think that's going to be the best thing that's that's my one ask from all of you.

645
01:25:33.210 --> 01:25:39.690
Sean Inoue: We are always here for you, for the Red Cross my goal in western Los Angeles it's a serve the Community and help you meet your needs.

646
01:25:39.960 --> 01:25:48.150
Sean Inoue: So I am very eager to collaborate with all of the thought leaders on this call to find ways to bring our services to those communities in one form or another.

647
01:25:48.600 --> 01:25:58.920
Sean Inoue: Because this could not be more important, so thank you all as as leaders in this space for taking the time to talk about this Thank you all as participants to come in and learn more about this, this is.

660
01:27:53.850 --> 01:28:06.180
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: here's my question very basic, what are the basics of a go bag and i'm going to add on have a preparedness plan that maybe is already in that go back.

661
01:28:06.930 --> 01:28:08.580
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: whoo all go.

662
01:28:09.150 --> 01:28:09.780
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: Thank you.

663
01:28:10.380 --> 01:28:15.990
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: hey I actually had a question, you know just cuz i'm a presenter doesn't mean I can't have questions too i'm playing.

664
01:28:16.470 --> 01:28:25.680
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: Exact okay i'm gonna get a little crazy with you, but if you want, I can send this out to everyone here, and I know our American Red Cross their list is a little bit different okay.

665
01:28:26.160 --> 01:28:31.440
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: Go back number one your important documents and a lot of people say, like the six p's.

666
01:28:32.250 --> 01:28:41.910
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: That starts with your your money your credit card, which is your plastic your personal items which is your computer maybe a thumb drive all your personal files, if you can have that one codified little file.

667
01:28:42.600 --> 01:28:52.410
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: Pictures memorabilia prescriptions vitamins and stuff your phone other important documents, and then they said pets and people that's the full 6pm that's actually.

668
01:28:52.680 --> 01:29:01.470
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: On our heart and your home and and on LSD website, and I know Arc has a little bit different one but rico's go back because I can't number one fit all all of that.

669
01:29:01.950 --> 01:29:13.950
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: I have a few days worth of clothes on top of that some of central food items just enough to get me through a dangerous or hostile environment to get some calories and for sustainability.

670
01:29:14.340 --> 01:29:26.400
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: A little bit of water, also have an emergency radio and emergency knife the Multi use knife, so it has you know the gerber one is the one that I have, if you want to know and then that bag.

671
01:29:27.540 --> 01:29:38.520
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: I have to be able to hike with it, so the bag itself has to be compatible with me and what I do is I actually take mine I loaded up with some weight and I go exercise with it.

672
01:29:40.110 --> 01:29:51.600
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: Because you have to know your capability it's not just having a bag that has a bunch of messing it organized purposeful and then I can actually get from point A and point B and my test.

673
01:29:52.530 --> 01:30:02.370
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: is actually from work to get home and that's going to be about a two day travel time and i'm only in the Valencia area coming from Los Angeles.

674
01:30:02.730 --> 01:30:13.410
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: So imagine a major disaster getting from point A to Point B so basic go bag, but I will also say this because i'm a nerd I have several go bags.

675
01:30:14.370 --> 01:30:26.970
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: Okay, and for different types of plants and again look at other people's items that they have in their find out what works for you and make sure it's compatible again for you.

676
01:30:28.140 --> 01:30:29.520
Armando Hogan: Have gross may I jump in.

677
01:30:29.550 --> 01:30:30.990
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: Very quickly, yes, sir.

678
01:30:31.230 --> 01:30:39.180
Armando Hogan: Also, I want to just caution folks to not go out and spend a ton of money on trying to get a go bag that you know.

679
01:30:39.570 --> 01:30:52.740
Armando Hogan: To his point at way 750 pounds and then you try to put that on your back and then you're just pretty much a turtle on your back so you have a lot of things around the House that you probably no longer use also.

680
01:30:54.360 --> 01:31:03.810
Armando Hogan: CAP gross shared with you flashlights and a transistor radio are probably two of the more important things other than pets right because they're part of the family.

681
01:31:04.200 --> 01:31:16.080
Armando Hogan: And then also having something for you to be able to stay warm but making sure you have batteries, making sure that you have all of those minimal things that don't cost you a lot of money.

682
01:31:16.410 --> 01:31:25.140
Armando Hogan: But will go a long way, so just be careful don't allow yourself to be sucked into the vortex of I got to spend a million dollars or I won't be safe.

683
01:31:25.560 --> 01:31:35.100
Armando Hogan: be smart in terms of what you're doing and do this for all of us practice, you heard CAP gross talking about as part of his workout Program.

684
01:31:35.460 --> 01:31:44.700
Armando Hogan: because everyone thinks they're going to be able to hop in a vehicle and drive down the street, you may not be able to depending on the disaster knock on wood that we don't have one.

685
01:31:45.000 --> 01:31:57.750
Armando Hogan: So, also be mindful of having one in your car like I do, but also having what at my front door also having what at my work assignment and every place that I go my family and I.

686
01:31:58.320 --> 01:32:09.480
Armando Hogan: Ad nauseum because they get tired of hearing me saying it all the time, has a goal back at the ready, so it doesn't have to be high tech it doesn't have to be all whatever works for you, but think.

687
01:32:10.290 --> 01:32:24.930
Armando Hogan: In terms of being cost smart and then, most importantly, ease in use in where and carry right you don't want to have to get back surgery after you deploy your go bag so just wanted to share that with you as well.

688
01:32:25.260 --> 01:32:25.950
Armando Hogan: As you.

689
01:32:26.700 --> 01:32:28.620
Sean Inoue: Know watch oh sorry go ahead and chime in first.

690
01:32:28.950 --> 01:32:35.940
Chin Thammasaengsri: Oh, I just want to kind of kick in and say i'm cash small bills.

691
01:32:36.270 --> 01:32:40.710
Chin Thammasaengsri: mobile's that it, it has no time to be big pimpin during a.

692
01:32:42.810 --> 01:32:54.210
Chin Thammasaengsri: break out those benjamin's you are in trouble and have and have don't have cash and ones fives 10s that 300 if you can you know but.

693
01:32:54.660 --> 01:33:04.440
Chin Thammasaengsri: Just remember apple pay all no stuff will not work and the money will not come out of the wall so make sure you have that, as part of your.

694
01:33:04.980 --> 01:33:18.750
Chin Thammasaengsri: As part of your go bag and like I said don't flash don't flash those benjamin's around because you, you will find you will find that vendors will say I can't get to change so money in small denominations just saying.

695
01:33:19.500 --> 01:33:29.790
Sean Inoue: yeah and I love I love all the comments about different go bags and everyone's everyone's going to have a different one right So if you got pets if you got children if you've got medication that you take.

696
01:33:30.000 --> 01:33:38.310
Sean Inoue: All these things are things to take into account, and I also love that people are having different go bags in different locations, because if you are at work and there's an emergency.

697
01:33:38.880 --> 01:33:46.290
Sean Inoue: I keep one of my truck and it's very basic right it's documents it's a flashlight it's my utility knife and it's a.

698
01:33:47.700 --> 01:33:55.530
Sean Inoue: A ham radio right so again ham radio take a little bit of training, but there are classes, you can get on the ready and they're very like one of the most important things i've ever taken.

699
01:33:56.700 --> 01:34:12.720
Sean Inoue: The other thing I will say the largest like a should say disaster that we've experienced in Los Angeles and correct me if i'm wrong, so the extras on here was the northridge earthquake, one of the largest local disasters, the number one injury from that disaster as a.

700
01:34:13.110 --> 01:34:14.940
Sean Inoue: seat lacerations yeah.

701
01:34:16.410 --> 01:34:22.260
Sean Inoue: shoes you don't need to go buy a fancy pair take an old pair of tennis shoes put them in a bag by your bed tonight.

702
01:34:22.620 --> 01:34:34.830
Sean Inoue: that's one of the most important things you can do just throw on an old pair of shoes, so you have just basic coverage to gather the House if there's broken glass if there's embers it's gonna be it's gonna be a big thing for you so just that's my two cents there.

703
01:34:36.630 --> 01:34:39.060
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: I would also add a first aid kit.

704
01:34:39.330 --> 01:34:40.410
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: To all of your bands.

705
01:34:40.920 --> 01:34:50.910
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: Even if you don't have a disaster, you might have a small injury cut yourself, or whatever, having a few band aids available having some trouble antibiotic.

706
01:34:51.930 --> 01:34:54.870
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: But expand upon that get first aid training.

707
01:34:56.190 --> 01:35:05.910
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: As Sean said, the number one injury after the northridge earthquake was cut up feet, if you can help your neighbors out by cleaning their feet.

708
01:35:07.350 --> 01:35:15.030
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: bandages them you're saving them from possibly getting an infection possibly losing their foot if they can't make it to the hospital with that infection.

709
01:35:15.570 --> 01:35:24.660
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: So that training is important but, having first aid kits throughout your home in your car at work it you never know when you're going to need those.

710
01:35:27.480 --> 01:35:39.360
Crisanta: I think i'll just add my two cents in and say for violent we asked you to get a little you know little backpacks that are string but inside and tie that to the foot of the bed of each incident there shaking.

711
01:35:40.230 --> 01:35:58.110
Crisanta: That backstage put in that bag, we asked you that you put 30 shoes some leather gloves if you can study gloves a bicycle home, and if you don't have a hard hat I reflected best flashlight and, of course, your rylan.

712
01:35:59.580 --> 01:36:10.920
Crisanta: checklist of all your neighbors names in the equipment list, I also have an extra pair of glasses in line, and I have glowsticks as well, and so.

713
01:36:11.970 --> 01:36:14.880
Crisanta: And as far as making the planet think that was your secondary question.

714
01:36:15.390 --> 01:36:16.230
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: Yes, yeah.

715
01:36:16.500 --> 01:36:27.600
Crisanta: I could Red Cross has some great plans Elliot D their website has some great planning tools our website has some great planning tools just keep in mind that.

716
01:36:28.170 --> 01:36:39.150
Crisanta: You need to have a communication plan, first and foremost because, if your family is separated, we met you know so maybe it works on this, maybe at school now and the time of Kobe way i'll be at home, but things are opening up again.

717
01:36:39.540 --> 01:36:51.150
Crisanta: So, like for myself my children are working in different parts of the city or they're going to school in different parts of the city so we're not always the same, you know 1520 mile radius at any given point in time.

718
01:36:52.380 --> 01:36:57.750
Crisanta: So the communication plan is key, we all know, to call my cousin rosie.

719
01:36:58.200 --> 01:37:07.410
Crisanta: In Washington state of Washington and tell her give a brief one sentences of we're Okay, and where we're at so she can relay that to each of us as we call in.

720
01:37:07.890 --> 01:37:16.080
Crisanta: So consider having someone outside of the city, preferably you know outside of the state to be your.

721
01:37:17.040 --> 01:37:32.820
Crisanta: Collection one point of contact for collection and dissemination so make sure your communication plan is not only in placements communicated my children range in age from 22 to 35 and I still have to remind them of what our plan is so practice practice practice.

722
01:37:34.440 --> 01:37:41.670
Crisanta: So that's the beginning of your plan and then keep you know in mind if you don't have a neighborhood plan who's going to get the dogs.

723
01:37:42.270 --> 01:37:51.090
Crisanta: cats, you know I no longer have small children So for me it's who's going to get the dogs, you know what's our plan for the dogs, if one of us is home or none of us are home.

724
01:37:52.530 --> 01:37:57.720
Crisanta: And where we get to meet and all that fun stuff so that's another thing and then I also part of our plan is.

725
01:37:58.800 --> 01:38:09.120
Crisanta: You know uploading our documents and sharing documents and so and i've been to a cloud based so that any of us to get to it, sharing that information between all of us from it my adult children, where that information is.

726
01:38:09.720 --> 01:38:14.970
Crisanta: So it's just practice practice practice so make sure you have your communication number one.

727
01:38:15.720 --> 01:38:19.290
Crisanta: How you're going to get the vulnerable people in your home, whether that's your pets or a little boys.

728
01:38:19.620 --> 01:38:25.890
Crisanta: And then, where you're reporting document because you're going to need that for their recovery efforts, for you know insurance purposes medical books and all that good stuff.

729
01:38:26.130 --> 01:38:39.990
Crisanta: And then elections that have that cash make sure everybody remembers to have that cash I had cash in a vanilla empty vanilla container in my freezer that my kids don't like that flavor and that's where I keep my ones, and I know they won't go in there and get that.

730
01:38:41.340 --> 01:38:46.320
Crisanta: there's never any single building my wallet anywhere where my children Convention.

731
01:38:47.910 --> 01:38:48.960
Crisanta: that's kind of the.

732
01:38:50.190 --> 01:38:58.200
Crisanta: The small part of planning, you can build it to fit your needs make sure you always have at least have to think gas in your car.

733
01:38:59.010 --> 01:39:12.930
Crisanta: understand what to do to drop cover and hold if you're in a in a train on a bus in your car walking and what does that look like be aware of your surroundings, have a plan, regardless of whether you're on the train in a bus and a car.

734
01:39:16.230 --> 01:39:17.190
Crisanta: off the top of my head.

735
01:39:18.780 --> 01:39:20.400
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: For those of you who go to work.

736
01:39:20.910 --> 01:39:29.520
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: In an office always keep your keys with you there's been maybe not in La but in New York for sure, and a few other places where there's been.

737
01:39:30.330 --> 01:39:39.780
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: Active shooters or power outages or something and you're not at your desk with your keys suddenly you can't get back to your desk to get to your keys.

738
01:39:40.140 --> 01:39:50.220
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: And now you can't drive home because you don't have your keys so always keep those with you always keep your cell phone with you that's your primary point of contact for anybody trying to reach you.

739
01:39:51.330 --> 01:39:55.530
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: don't trust, leaving it at your desk thinking that you're always going to be able to get back to it.

740
01:40:00.600 --> 01:40:01.050
Hello.

741
01:40:02.190 --> 01:40:02.970
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: yeah go ahead mark.

742
01:40:03.240 --> 01:40:13.770
Mark Presky: hi um can we now get live cpr and first aid training, I know that cogan put the kibosh on that for a while.

743
01:40:14.940 --> 01:40:24.090
Mark Presky: But that's one thing i've been meaning to to go back to get i've been through it, years ago, but I can use review and marcia sitting next to me.

744
01:40:25.740 --> 01:40:29.640
Mark Presky: You know, could has never gone through it, so that would be kind of cool.

745
01:40:31.980 --> 01:40:35.490
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: we've helped organize several live in person first day trainings.

746
01:40:37.050 --> 01:40:44.130
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: So it's definitely possible you can reach out to Jen I know he's got some he's aware of some that are going on.

747
01:40:44.910 --> 01:40:45.480
Mark Presky: Okay, thank.

748
01:40:45.930 --> 01:40:54.360
Chin Thammasaengsri: You just say we just added train took place in South la just yesterday so definitely do reach out and we can help you get that thing going.

749
01:40:56.430 --> 01:41:03.150
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: And now, what I want to remind attendees keep your hands up if you have a question and I will call on you and you'll be able to speak.

750
01:41:04.020 --> 01:41:17.100
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: But to keep it going, I have another question when do I know when to hunker down versus went to bug out want to leave, would you know, in an earthquake situation.

751
01:41:20.790 --> 01:41:23.970
Armando Hogan: Okay i'll take that based on everyone just jumping to answer that.

752
01:41:23.970 --> 01:41:24.600
question.

753
01:41:25.650 --> 01:41:35.280
Armando Hogan: Two things i'll share with you 98% of the time, the Los Angeles fire department wants you to shelter in place at your home 98% of the.

754
01:41:35.280 --> 01:41:41.100
Armando Hogan: Time that other 2% of the times, you may have to be on the move, so a couple things will happen.

755
01:41:41.520 --> 01:41:47.370
Armando Hogan: And I know a lot of times we talk more about the earthquake and the inability to traverse the roads and so forth, what does that look like.

756
01:41:48.120 --> 01:41:56.910
Armando Hogan: Even though there is concerned about whether or not your cell phones will work, I want to encourage you all to opt in to the.

757
01:41:57.480 --> 01:42:08.790
Armando Hogan: notify la have into go on to our alerts lf D alerts that way you've got an information fee coming to you, which will help you in your decision making.

758
01:42:09.210 --> 01:42:13.230
Armando Hogan: Because a lot of times the earthquake never happens when we're prepared.

759
01:42:13.590 --> 01:42:20.400
Armando Hogan: it's at two o'clock in the morning it's at four o'clock in the morning it's in the middle of us having dinner somewhere and that's, the last thing on our mind.

760
01:42:20.760 --> 01:42:27.360
Armando Hogan: As we're all hungry and our stomachs are growing so because of that make sure that you take advantage of that opt in.

761
01:42:27.750 --> 01:42:38.160
Armando Hogan: Where information notify la is from emergency management department and then we have our so we kind of run in tandem with that and sometimes it's an exercise in redundancy.

762
01:42:38.490 --> 01:42:42.870
Armando Hogan: But it's the best redundancy, you can have because we'll be a lot more specific.

763
01:42:43.200 --> 01:42:56.250
Armando Hogan: On what's happening emt will kind of give you a general idea but they're really good at building a geo fence around certain areas and then shooting in notifications to you, so that way that will help you with the roads that are compromised.

764
01:42:56.520 --> 01:43:06.480
Armando Hogan: areas to try to avoid and then, most importantly, where is the best place to go in that particular location 95% of the time knock on wood.

765
01:43:07.020 --> 01:43:14.850
Armando Hogan: i'll have a lefty resources in that area that will further trigger whether or not you should leave or if you should stay.

766
01:43:15.270 --> 01:43:28.830
Armando Hogan: So I you know i'd love to be able to say, every time it's going to happen as the US, and so, but I cannot do that, but what I will say is, if you have that opt in then we're still connected, even though it is.

767
01:43:29.520 --> 01:43:35.700
Armando Hogan: Through more of a virtual platform, but we can still get you information, we can still share with you what the challenges are.

768
01:43:36.120 --> 01:43:49.170
Armando Hogan: And a lot of folks can opt in to the point where it may not even be impacting your neighborhood but your family's neighborhood across town or friends or coworkers or anyone that you would consider your extended family.

769
01:43:50.010 --> 01:44:00.180
Armando Hogan: And that also helps you for those who have to go pick up their children for those who are at work and are separated a great distance from where you reside so remember.

770
01:44:00.780 --> 01:44:03.090
Armando Hogan: I really want to encourage you to do the opt in.

771
01:44:03.870 --> 01:44:14.880
Armando Hogan: Excuse me, and then I want you to know that we will have resources lapd will be out as well, because as soon as some type of disaster takes place, we all mobilize and will be out there.

772
01:44:15.180 --> 01:44:23.610
Armando Hogan: So we always try to go and we do a survey first to determine where are the biggest impacts phone calls will still be coming in through 911.

773
01:44:23.940 --> 01:44:36.270
Armando Hogan: Right, we know that we've seen that happen, even in North northridge that happen so because of that will shoot information out and we'll try to keep you as educated, as we can, on what's taking place in the city.

774
01:44:36.750 --> 01:44:48.720
Armando Hogan: Then from there we'll be able to better assist you with locations and then we'll try to get resources to you, but if we can't we still have PA systems on our apparatus.

775
01:44:49.080 --> 01:45:03.930
Armando Hogan: We have helicopters, that will be flying and will also be able to go to a particular area and they too can give you information through the public address system, so those are the different ways that will try to keep you informed as to when to move and when to stay.

776
01:45:05.400 --> 01:45:12.960
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: At such great information great resources, so please do sign up for those notifications.

777
01:45:14.160 --> 01:45:23.250
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: And all right, I do see that we have to attendees with questions so i'm going to go and start with Nicole, give me one moment.

778
01:45:25.800 --> 01:45:29.640
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: All right, and you should be able to speak.

779
01:45:30.180 --> 01:45:30.690
Nicole Jeans: hear me.

780
01:45:31.320 --> 01:45:32.520
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: Yes, great.

781
01:45:33.390 --> 01:45:36.990
Nicole Jeans: So i'm in the Marina hopefully i'm not breaking the rules by being here.

782
01:45:39.090 --> 01:45:39.480
Nicole Jeans: So.

783
01:45:40.020 --> 01:45:52.590
Nicole Jeans: One of my major concerns is tsunamis, and I wondered if i'm sort of deep in the area where you know Pacific and the nautical street so like Pacific and top sale area where.

784
01:45:53.520 --> 01:46:01.710
Nicole Jeans: A tsunami would be especially with little notice pretty scary for me, and so I wonder if we can I would love to hear what people.

785
01:46:02.520 --> 01:46:03.690
Nicole Jeans: have to say about.

786
01:46:04.320 --> 01:46:22.560
Nicole Jeans: tsunami, how to react to the tsunami and and the shelter zones and you know further if you would suggest everyone have a bike in this area to kind of be able to avoid any sort of traffic jam, because obviously we're not going to all be able to flee via car.

787
01:46:24.930 --> 01:46:34.710
Crisanta: Listen, and then chief or whoever else can jump in so the state of California has a tsunami group hello, yes, complete opposite emergency services has a cinema group.

788
01:46:35.040 --> 01:46:43.890
Crisanta: So we weren't close to the city of La works very closely with the event and that group, so we do plan exercises and also work very closely with record parks.

789
01:46:44.790 --> 01:47:00.870
Crisanta: Who so many young men as a superintendent over your area of the business, it might be merciful mature so she has worked coordinate to put up signs and all the kiosk those are new signs that we've just gone through we've updated the plans of smelly plan tsunami notification language.

790
01:47:02.040 --> 01:47:11.460
Crisanta: So just know that that all those things will constantly looking at we're going to have the a drill and city drill or tsunami that's going to be the focus of our job this year.

791
01:47:11.820 --> 01:47:19.980
Crisanta: And then we're also working with Kelly has to have the tsunami walk in the Venice area, so those are all things that are coming down the Pike in this year.

792
01:47:21.300 --> 01:47:22.140
Crisanta: on that topic.

793
01:47:23.460 --> 01:47:41.520
Crisanta: You know, keep in mind that most of you got the alert for the tsunami that happened a few months ago, keep in mind for those of you i'm sure you're all aware of that, so when the the ring of fire when the earthquake happens on the other side of the globe.

794
01:47:42.540 --> 01:47:50.310
Crisanta: You know it triggers are thresholds and we start watching it so, even if the earthquake happens in Japan or wherever on that side.

795
01:47:50.640 --> 01:47:58.140
Crisanta: We get the notifications, and then we immediately follow the subject matter experts tell us you know what the potential weight height so.

796
01:47:58.380 --> 01:48:05.100
Crisanta: it's not something like an earthquake which is going to happen instantaneously we're going to give you time and there's going to be time for you to.

797
01:48:05.880 --> 01:48:11.010
Crisanta: evacuated we're going to give you information, you know information hey this looks like maybe like a three foot wave.

798
01:48:11.310 --> 01:48:21.390
Crisanta: You know, five foot increase in your head so maybe more like high tide really more than anything else, so, as she mentioned just make sure that you're saying that probably notifications and notify la.

799
01:48:22.230 --> 01:48:30.960
Crisanta: la Dee alerts and those will give you real time information, because we will have been monitoring that for hours before we ever send out the messaging.

800
01:48:31.980 --> 01:48:35.280
Crisanta: So that's a good thing about synonymous, to give me a little bit of time.

801
01:48:35.880 --> 01:48:40.800
Armando Hogan: Absolutely, and if I could just jump on one thing, one of the beauties of, and I know that's a morbid thought.

802
01:48:41.190 --> 01:48:51.030
Armando Hogan: But of this is traffic will all go one way away from the beach now they'll, of course, where we have looky Loos and thrill seekers and want to come and see it up close and personal.

803
01:48:51.390 --> 01:48:58.950
Armando Hogan: And we get that but, for the most part, you know, the main streets going out your venice's your Olympics and all of those different streets.

804
01:48:59.280 --> 01:49:08.580
Armando Hogan: Basically they'll just become one way and they'll all be headed East so that way we can get folks as far away as possible and just depending on as for Santa mentioned.

805
01:49:08.910 --> 01:49:17.340
Armando Hogan: What those warnings are we're always looking to get you to high ground so we'll all the llc will be activated all of the respected do sees.

806
01:49:17.640 --> 01:49:24.510
Armando Hogan: will be activated and basically what we'll be doing is making sure we're moving folks away from the impact it area.

807
01:49:24.810 --> 01:49:36.300
Armando Hogan: To some location shelters would be open at that point in time, obviously, a lot of the more inland hotels will be available so basically it would just be would turn into all of us going to.

808
01:49:36.570 --> 01:49:40.440
Armando Hogan: Temporary safe places of refuge, is the goal their.

809
01:49:40.800 --> 01:49:53.400
Armando Hogan: Preparedness still applies right we still want to have our goal bags For these very reasons it's not always about a fire it's not always about an earthquake, so any type of natural disaster that's why that go bag will come in.

810
01:49:53.730 --> 01:50:03.540
Armando Hogan: And will be so important, but to croissants point, this is not Oh, I hear some rumbling oops here's a tsunami wave coming our direction right.

811
01:50:04.020 --> 01:50:09.240
Armando Hogan: A lot of times the waters will recede and go back out into the ocean so we'll have some time.

812
01:50:09.780 --> 01:50:18.030
Armando Hogan: To get the movement going, and for us to mobilize in those particular areas, but we will get you out, we will have the focus on everyone going east.

813
01:50:18.810 --> 01:50:36.360
Armando Hogan: Thank you CAP gross and so we are always in those discussions, so I want you guys, to know that we are always talking about what we can do what we can do better, and how we implement it and how we work best together, providing service to all of you, so thank you.

814
01:50:37.470 --> 01:50:47.130
Keith Harrison: I chief and Chris Santa this is Keith just trying in here I mean just from a practical note and i'm glad to see mapping out there.

815
01:50:48.480 --> 01:51:09.870
Keith Harrison: Those signs and croissants talked about that's important they're there for a reason to show you the routes and whether you're going in and out, but as a rule of thumb is, if you have a tsunami alert that you heard is to get to Lincoln that is East get get out to.

816
01:51:11.220 --> 01:51:17.310
Keith Harrison: That area that will then you'll probably by that time when you bite your your walked.

817
01:51:18.360 --> 01:51:26.070
Keith Harrison: You will have public safety people directing you further, but that puts you outside of the inundation zone so correct me if i'm wrong with that is that.

818
01:51:26.370 --> 01:51:33.330
Keith Harrison: Particularly if we get a near source event something like a landslide off of Santa Catalina where there would be very little warning.

819
01:51:33.690 --> 01:51:47.310
Keith Harrison: Except for the ground shaking for 20 seconds or So those are good things to keep in mind and thank and that really looking forward to working with you guys on that tsunami exercise for Venice.

820
01:51:50.250 --> 01:51:50.760
awesome.

821
01:51:51.840 --> 01:51:57.150
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: Alright, so I have another question from an attendee and it is bill so give me one moment.

822
01:52:02.790 --> 01:52:03.600
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: All right, go ahead.

823
01:52:05.970 --> 01:52:22.290
bill: Captain gross mentioned the need for a radio, because our phones assume that means both landline and cell phone might not be working so i'd like someone to talk about the radio aspect.

824
01:52:24.990 --> 01:52:33.270
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: i'm not sure if that was me that said that are not bill, but let me answer it really briefly and then i'm actually going to turn it over to one of my radio go tues Patrick.

825
01:52:33.960 --> 01:52:41.040
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: who's in the room, unless he wants to defer to chin now just revolving around communications in general.

826
01:52:41.940 --> 01:52:51.360
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: We should assume that our communications are going to be not only limited and not only cut off and and that natural disaster, but also inundated.

827
01:52:51.840 --> 01:53:01.080
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: Meaning that's why we call out to the further family members, I call family who are Midwest again one or two.

828
01:53:02.070 --> 01:53:09.060
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: Words sentences, this is me this is where i'm at this is my condition check back with you at this time.

829
01:53:09.540 --> 01:53:23.580
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: very quick communication, because the lines are going to be filled your auxiliary communications in your backups to that and i'm going to give it to Patrick because there's several different modes and I want them to talk about hardest to easiest.

830
01:53:24.810 --> 01:53:25.440
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: Go for it brother.

831
01:53:26.670 --> 01:53:36.690
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: um so the hardest is going to be what what is really the standard across the United States during a.

832
01:53:37.290 --> 01:53:45.450
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: Any kind of disaster, we know cell phones will go down the cell phone network is not resilient enough so guaranteed your cell phone will not work.

833
01:53:46.230 --> 01:53:57.240
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: It may be able to work for a few seconds after the earthquake, but as soon as everybody starts texting starts calling you'll overload the network, and it will go down hard and we've seen this time and time again.

834
01:53:58.710 --> 01:54:07.380
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: Infrastructure is not being maintained so at amp T is not maintaining their plain old telephone lines anymore, they don't want to.

835
01:54:08.220 --> 01:54:16.980
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: They want to move away from that so don't count on your landline working, even though we say everybody should have a landline it's powered by the central office blah blah blah.

836
01:54:17.310 --> 01:54:24.690
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: chances are it's going to go down as well, if you are on a cable modem guaranteed to go down 100%.

837
01:54:25.170 --> 01:54:40.980
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: And you have a battery backup on your on your modem itself but i've every single time there's been a problem it's gone down hard, so the only reliable communication is then a ham, radio, and this is what.

838
01:54:42.300 --> 01:54:53.520
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: They when the levees broke from Katrina, it was reported and by ham radio operators, it is a two way radio it works line of sight.

839
01:54:54.240 --> 01:55:10.620
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: and communicates at the speed of light it's very simple to use you push and hold to talk and release to listen, but it's actually more complicated than that using a two way radio, it requires practice you can't just pick up the radio and expect to be able to communicate.

840
01:55:12.270 --> 01:55:17.160
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: coherently, let alone at an expert level the gentleman in the room.

841
01:55:18.540 --> 01:55:24.780
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: Captain gross chief hogan they use their radios every single day and.

842
01:55:25.890 --> 01:55:39.990
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: They get a lot of practice with it we don't So if you are interested in really you know updating your skills start taking him training take amateur radio classes get your technician license.

843
01:55:41.550 --> 01:55:55.350
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: And then get a ham, radio, now the ham radio why it's the most difficult is because it does require that test, you have to know something you at least need to be able to memorize the questions and then take it, and then you need to practice with it.

844
01:55:55.890 --> 01:56:03.900
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: easier than that, and what I recommend everybody do regardless of if you have a ham license or not is go buy a family radio service radio.

845
01:56:04.410 --> 01:56:14.790
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: What Keith is holding up right now for us it's free to use you just have to go buy it, you can buy them at Amazon bestbuy costco walmart wherever you.

846
01:56:15.150 --> 01:56:23.040
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: think you can find one you can probably find it there they're sold in pairs bubble packs because they are you need to to communicate.

847
01:56:23.760 --> 01:56:29.280
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: But they're meant for families to use and there's a lot of them out there and that's good and bad.

848
01:56:29.730 --> 01:56:38.910
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: they're low power, which is good and bad so you're not going to talk the whole city on it, but you'll be able to talk to your block you'll be talking to be able to talk to your immediate neighbors with them.

849
01:56:39.390 --> 01:56:45.780
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: And if everybody in the block has a radio and you practice using them do a radio net for your block.

850
01:56:46.170 --> 01:56:51.720
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: A once a week, just so you know who's there, and you get experience using them you make sure your radio works every week.

851
01:56:52.230 --> 01:56:59.370
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: Then, at least you get a little bit of practice using it before you need to and that's just going to be the easiest way to communicate.

852
01:56:59.880 --> 01:57:11.280
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: What we expect when we have CERT responders or neighborhood teen program Members coming out and supporting us there'll be bringing their frs radios neighbor team program is going to provide.

853
01:57:12.600 --> 01:57:16.350
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: Excuse me, additional radios at each staging area kit.

854
01:57:17.700 --> 01:57:23.940
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: So we have a little bit better communication, but everyone should have an frs radio and then go get your ham license if you can.

855
01:57:25.620 --> 01:57:28.350
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: And again, Patrick Thank you knocked it out of the park.

856
01:57:29.010 --> 01:57:40.140
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: And again, like chief hogan said in the beginning we're not expecting you to or people to break the bank when they're building these emergency plans do things that are practical for you.

857
01:57:40.890 --> 01:57:49.080
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: I am, I do not have a ham radio I use the smaller family radios I my kids have them when they go to school.

858
01:57:50.640 --> 01:57:58.770
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: Everything else is on my lamb radio if i'm functional but remember and again this comes back to communications.

859
01:57:59.850 --> 01:58:18.030
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: What are you using it for who are you talking to if i've made you strong and hardened your home and made you resilient and ready to survive for two weeks in your House clean you talk to other than the people who might need help so again.

860
01:58:19.500 --> 01:58:24.900
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: We all get so caught up in our devices whoa that's crazy look at that.

861
01:58:26.160 --> 01:58:26.550
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: Oh.

862
01:58:28.050 --> 01:58:29.640
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: Oh no do that.

863
01:58:30.210 --> 01:58:31.410
We all get so caught.

864
01:58:32.460 --> 01:58:43.890
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: that's a good illusion that we all get so caught up in our devices when we really need to understand our own preservation skills, we are very powerful individuals, and when you.

865
01:58:44.520 --> 01:58:56.460
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: Have that plan and you practice it, and if you have some extra tools, a great you'll be able to help some people who might be in critical need but, at the end of the day, like chief said 95% of the time 98 excuse me.

866
01:58:56.880 --> 01:59:00.450
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: we're going to have you shelter at home and if your home is ready to go.

867
01:59:01.620 --> 01:59:09.510
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: wow you've taken my job away from me, which I hope everyone does take it away i'd rather people save themselves than me have to.

868
01:59:12.000 --> 01:59:15.090
Chin Thammasaengsri: Can I can I add a little bit something to the communications.

869
01:59:15.240 --> 01:59:16.140
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: know your time's up.

870
01:59:16.680 --> 01:59:17.640
Chin Thammasaengsri: Okay bye bye.

871
01:59:20.910 --> 01:59:26.520
Chin Thammasaengsri: I just want to add a little something communication so i'm going to take it slightly, just a quick different direction.

872
01:59:27.960 --> 01:59:33.750
Chin Thammasaengsri: One of the things you should have with your packs just a general radio, something you can listen to am FM bands.

873
01:59:34.560 --> 01:59:47.280
Chin Thammasaengsri: keep in mind, and this comes from my 30 years of working working for us TV which, which is what I do when i'm not doing this, we wonder when they get their time because i'm doing it so much, but um.

874
01:59:47.730 --> 01:59:59.220
Chin Thammasaengsri: there's going to be obviously there's going to be a period of downtime when TV and radio or down, but I can tell you from being in that fire that they do have very quick plans to get back up so.

875
01:59:59.550 --> 02:00:08.820
Chin Thammasaengsri: As part of your communications operations in addition to using your two way radios for local communications have somebody monitor those.

876
02:00:09.090 --> 02:00:26.550
Chin Thammasaengsri: General radio stations and the stations, you want to keep in mind, you want to keep in mind for very, very quick news, or like can X 1070 K, if I am, but I want, but I do want to say that every radio station on the diet.

877
02:00:27.570 --> 02:00:34.230
Chin Thammasaengsri: Whether it's am or FM or whether it plays music or whatever it is, they will all have the ability to switch over.

878
02:00:35.070 --> 02:00:44.880
Chin Thammasaengsri: To some kind of news programming have done that in the past, so just make sure you have a portable radio basic am FM radio.

879
02:00:45.330 --> 02:00:53.280
Chin Thammasaengsri: And you should be able to get some kind of general area communications within some relatively quick period of time because again.

880
02:00:53.730 --> 02:01:00.180
Chin Thammasaengsri: These outlets also have an emergency plan have their own case their own buildings and studios and damaged.

881
02:01:00.990 --> 02:01:18.120
Chin Thammasaengsri: I know Casey yes already has a truck that's ready to go out to another place, set up a setup fee and get themselves back on the air soon as they can so you don't have to discount a major market, so I just want to kind of add that to the discussion.

882
02:01:18.780 --> 02:01:29.520
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: what's interesting is that a lot of these two way radios actually can receive FM radio and that what makes us very interesting is can X just took over.

883
02:01:31.200 --> 02:01:42.810
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: amp radio at 97.1 FM so that means that your bell thing radios some of the frs radios that can receive FM radio can now get can X.

884
02:01:43.710 --> 02:01:53.070
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: News radio on them, and that that is one of the big stations that's gonna be the probably the premier station that you want to be listening to in the La region.

885
02:01:55.890 --> 02:01:59.460
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: That was so thorough Thank you so much, I was literally googling.

886
02:02:00.480 --> 02:02:08.130
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: Like the family service radio, while you're saying like yes alright Annika I see that you've been waiting patiently, please.

887
02:02:08.190 --> 02:02:26.460

Anneke Campbell: Now, be great well i'm very excited about being part of that.

Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: No, no it's just she was made into a speaker.

02:07:35.940 --> 02:07:38.910
Sima Kostovetsky: top three things for us novices.

934
02:07:39.930 --> 02:07:57.090
Sima Kostovetsky: top three things that we should do like i've got kids I I know we talked about small bills, I know we talked about water supply, but really and especially with our reliance on our devices, the lack there.

935
02:07:58.740 --> 02:08:01.560
Sima Kostovetsky: without having to take a walkie talkie course.

936
02:08:04.200 --> 02:08:13.290
Sima Kostovetsky: top three to five things that you guys could talk about that we all could do to ready our households and ready our families.

937
02:08:14.430 --> 02:08:15.330
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: Disneyland.

938
02:08:17.430 --> 02:08:17.670
Chin Thammasaengsri: yeah.

939
02:08:19.920 --> 02:08:23.610
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: i'm just saying disneyland's got it all like.

940
02:08:23.970 --> 02:08:29.130
Sima Kostovetsky: you're doing it'll take us eight hours to get there on a good day.

941
02:08:30.000 --> 02:08:37.290
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: A look at, and I say that because I love where your hearts at I really do, but I can hear it in your voice that you're like.

942
02:08:37.620 --> 02:08:55.860
Rico Gross, Captain, LAFD, DPO: Oh, my gosh give me something, and so I mean that it was all due respect, I hope you don't take it, the wrong way i'm a joking person um I I nominate Sean the answer this question because my man's killing it at home, right now, and I love American Red Cross so.

943
02:08:56.160 --> 02:09:03.090
Sean Inoue: it's really nice, you know I think the biggest thing you can do it's going to be different for everybody, so start with something simple.

944
02:09:03.810 --> 02:09:11.370
Sean Inoue: look up building a kid at home just go bags for every one of your family members just make a plan together, I can't remember who it was.

945
02:09:12.030 --> 02:09:15.150
Sean Inoue: But one of the really important things about making a plan just in your home.

946
02:09:15.900 --> 02:09:24.060
Sean Inoue: is finding a meeting point outside belt of these like fire drills at work or school and there's always like this meeting point outside that there's something inside your home and.

947
02:09:24.300 --> 02:09:31.050
Sean Inoue: For my daughter she's too young so that's our first thing we're going to grab her and leave right but there's go back by the door there's go bags in my car.

948
02:09:31.380 --> 02:09:34.830
Sean Inoue: And my car's parked on the street, so if I don't have time to do both.

949
02:09:35.160 --> 02:09:47.010
Sean Inoue: i'm for sure just going to grab like living people in my house and my pets and grab the go back to my car afterwards so go back and make a plan, I think, are the top two things on my list and that's still a lot like.

950
02:09:47.280 --> 02:09:58.830
Sean Inoue: Like that can be that could take weeks for people to actually put together, but just taking the first steps of committing to that as a family will go miles, I mean I mean quite figuratively and.

951
02:09:59.400 --> 02:10:04.920
Sean Inoue: Literally it's going to help you really traveling to places, you need to get to an emergency, if you need to.

952
02:10:05.190 --> 02:10:15.540
Sean Inoue: it's going to give you immediate and acute care if you have first aid needs if you need shoes clothing water, food, like all those things if you're if you need special medications just.

953
02:10:15.870 --> 02:10:28.560
Sean Inoue: write those things out you think you'll need in the first 2448 72 hours put them into go bags and just have a plan for evacuating your home just immediate evacuation needs and then one to two days evacuation means.

954
02:10:30.030 --> 02:10:36.600
Chin Thammasaengsri: I want to get in on that one too i'm going to i'm going to say again i'm going to reiterate get to know your neighbors folks.

955
02:10:37.290 --> 02:10:44.940
Chin Thammasaengsri: You folks are going to need each other, no matter how well you you prepare for yourselves in your home's.

956
02:10:45.600 --> 02:10:49.680
Chin Thammasaengsri: Your good the whole community is going to need each other to make this thing work and.

957
02:10:50.400 --> 02:11:00.900
Chin Thammasaengsri: You know, you might have issues of childcare or helping you with an elderly elderly relative or something like that that's something that communities can come together and really work with each other on just.

958
02:11:01.590 --> 02:11:07.050
Chin Thammasaengsri: One thing we talked about some of our presentations is if you've got like let's say the same food in your cabinet.

959
02:11:07.500 --> 02:11:12.750
Chin Thammasaengsri: By day four or five you're done with that food if you've got tuna fish in there you're going to be done with that.

960
02:11:12.990 --> 02:11:20.010
Chin Thammasaengsri: i'm going to walk over to Patrick House and say you got some of those ribs you may i'll trade you trade your 10 Kansas stuff for that so.

961
02:11:20.280 --> 02:11:35.100
Chin Thammasaengsri: One of the things I say get to know your community, because when you have that commute when you know your Community when you have that cohesiveness you guys can ride out almost any disaster together and that end and Sema that's going to take some of the fear, I think.

962
02:11:36.150 --> 02:11:47.550
Chin Thammasaengsri: Out of what we do during a during a disaster because you can feel incredibly alone like wow it's like I gotta deal with this, but if you have a Community and a Community plan.

963
02:11:48.000 --> 02:11:56.190
Chin Thammasaengsri: almost any situation that arises and one of the things I want to say is that is that when you prepare We always talk about the ever dreaded earthquake.

964
02:11:56.730 --> 02:12:05.520
Chin Thammasaengsri: But we always use that as a measuring stick, because if you prepare for that you're prepared for almost everything else out there and we saw that.

965
02:12:06.870 --> 02:12:10.110
Chin Thammasaengsri: But again get to know your Community that's my that's my puzzle.

966
02:12:10.590 --> 02:12:26.730
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: I want to add on to sean's point about that, having a meeting point outside the home, have to, because what if you can't get back to your neighborhood What if your kids are you know, several miles away you're working across town.

967
02:12:27.900 --> 02:12:35.670
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: Have that that that meeting point have too many points one outside the home in your neighborhood and then one.

968
02:12:36.120 --> 02:12:43.740
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: Several blocks away or maybe, possibly in another part of town that everyone knows, to go to if you can't get home.

969
02:12:44.520 --> 02:12:56.940
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: And that way we've seen it before neighborhoods sometimes get shut down for variety of reasons, and maybe they're shut down for days so having that second location outside the neighborhood is going to be a central.

970
02:12:58.050 --> 02:13:12.060
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: Thank you so much alright, so we have two more questions and those will be the last ones, because we're getting to the end of the town hall here so first i'm going to go ahead and talk chair.

971
02:13:13.230 --> 02:13:15.000
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: And i'm sorry if i've mispronounced your name.

972
02:13:18.240 --> 02:13:19.140
Chie Lunn: hi can you hear me okay.

973
02:13:19.770 --> 02:13:25.650
Chie Lunn: Yes, hi so I wanted to just kind of reiterate, with a lot of the professionals.

974
02:13:26.130 --> 02:13:31.440
Chie Lunn: On this panel have said, but we hike i've met a school called Rome creative academy we hike with our kids.

975
02:13:31.800 --> 02:13:42.210
Chie Lunn: About five to eight hours a day, sometimes, and I just wanted to say, like for semen for a lot of parents out there and we're hiking with about eight kids to 10 kids Max.

976
02:13:42.720 --> 02:13:48.900
Chie Lunn: And agents from four to 14 never underestimate how much water, you need water is like.

977
02:13:49.410 --> 02:13:57.600
Chie Lunn: The biggest of your kids have like if you keep like two bottles of water in the car each, especially if they're younger they're gonna it's like you have to keep more water.

978
02:13:58.020 --> 02:14:07.950
Chie Lunn: And the other thing that we always find as teachers, really, really helpful when we're out or anything that's like easy packs of like the peanut butter, the nut butter.

979
02:14:08.850 --> 02:14:16.470
Chie Lunn: And these types of things are so easily and readily available these days is, but always keeping these things on you and making it a habit.

980
02:14:16.770 --> 02:14:28.470
Chie Lunn: For the people in your household when they're leaving out every single day take make your kids make your husband make your wives, whoever take ownership of being prepared, when they leave out so before you leave out every single day.

981
02:14:28.800 --> 02:14:38.700
Chie Lunn: Do you have your water bottles, do you have your emergency snack do you have band AIDS, do you have your emergency you know sanitation kit you know these sort of things.

982
02:14:39.090 --> 02:14:50.850
Chie Lunn: And the more you empower the people who you live with to keep that in the back of their mind that they are responsible as well, for being prepared, when they walk out the House every day, the better you all, are you know so.

983
02:14:51.060 --> 02:14:52.260
Chie Lunn: that's just my take on it.

984
02:14:52.260 --> 02:14:59.970
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: So thank you so much now it's so true that water aspect is key, let me get the last question.

985
02:14:59.970 --> 02:15:00.600
So.

986
02:15:02.370 --> 02:15:07.470
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: We actually we have a hike every month in Griffith park on the second Saturday, of the month.

987
02:15:08.370 --> 02:15:17.280
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: It is a challenging height if you're novice you're going to find out very quickly that even if you're physically fit this is a challenging hike.

988
02:15:18.000 --> 02:15:36.600
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: But if you check out our calendar at mtp dash la.org around the first of the month or so that height gets published, I recommend you go out there it's led by an experienced certain Members CERT coordinator, and we are always very safe about everything we have radio communications.

989
02:15:37.980 --> 02:15:41.610
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: And it's a good good way to challenge your site so.

990
02:15:42.810 --> 02:15:52.560
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: there's been instances where a fire across the freeway and everyone had to get out and hike back miles to.

991
02:15:53.940 --> 02:16:02.880
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: You know civilization, I think that was the 14 freeway that got shut down so you never know when you're going to need to to be able to hike for a few miles.

992
02:16:04.860 --> 02:16:11.130
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: All right, and then now, we have our last question from Jerry and let me go ahead.

993
02:16:13.710 --> 02:16:14.040
Cristina Rodriguez-Greenberg: alright.

994
02:16:20.850 --> 02:16:22.260

Sean Inoue: i'm so sorry i'll be very brief, if you're anything like me this can feel very overwhelming when I first started my preparedness journey, it was just.

1018
02:19:48.750 --> 02:19:54.900
Sean Inoue: overload my head was spinning my best recommendation is take it one step at a time and give yourself some grace.

1019
02:19:55.140 --> 02:20:03.780
Sean Inoue: You have started on a journey that's going to really make sure that you your family and your community is prepared so lean into it and you're exactly where you're supposed to be, thank you for taking the time.

1020
02:20:03.810 --> 02:20:04.950
Jose Morataya CERT Battalion 4: Baby baby steps.

1021
02:20:05.610 --> 02:20:10.080
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: yeah absolutely don't don't be so fearful that you lock up.

1022
02:20:11.220 --> 02:20:14.220
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: The disaster is not going to hopefully not going to happen tomorrow.

1023
02:20:14.880 --> 02:20:23.850
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: But it will happen at some point, so you need to start taking that journey don't bite off too much don't do too much don't be so fearful that you lock up.

1024
02:20:24.240 --> 02:20:34.860
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: take it one step at a time there's plenty of step by step guides out there Red Cross has an excellent guide on how to build a kit one week, at a time, I think it is.

1025
02:20:35.880 --> 02:20:40.830
Patrick Botz-Forbes, CERT/NTP: So amazing guide, so you don't just overwhelm yourself and you don't have to invest too much money into it.
