Get Ready, West Virginia. Just in case… ReadyWV! The likelihood of surviving a house fire depends just as much on whether there are working batteries in your smoke detector as on the fire fighters who arrive to help. The same is true for other emergencies. Preparing in advance is critical to keeping your family safe. ready.wv.gov Before an Emergency The Essentials People never expect emergencies. That is why they can be so harmful. Getting ready in advance is the best way to minimize damage. Whether the emergency is big or small, there are some things your family should always have on hand. Three things you can’t do without… Four things you will wish you had… • Water • Food • Flashlights • Medicines • Radio • Bank Records • Warm Clothes and Blankets 2 Four Steps to Ready The following sections provide tips, tools and resources for taking steps to protect your family. Build an emergency plan, prepare your home, prepare to evacuate, and improve financial preparedness. It is easy to take just one step toward getting your family prepared for an emergency. For instance, you can go check your smoke alarm right now, or talk with your family at dinner tonight about where your meeting place should be. Instead of taking one step, we hope you will make progress in four areas. Building Your Plan One of the most effective ways to • Your family should know that if prepare your family for a disaster is landline or cellular telephones are not to create a family emergency plan. working, they need to be patient and Meet with your family to discuss why try again later or try e-mail.

It is important to store the things you need in advance of any emergency or crisis situation. You may need to survive on your own during a winter storm, shelter in place during a chemical emergency, or provide your own care if first responders are needed elsewhere.

Organizations can use mass media outlets to change social conditions and encourage political and social intervention. When working with the media, advocates should ‘shape’ their story to incorporate social themes rather than solely focusing on individual accountability. “Develop a story that personalizes the injustice and then provide a clear picture of who is benefiting from the condition.” (Wallack et al., 1999) Merely stating that there is a problem provides no ‘call to action’ for the public. Therefore, advocates should identify a specific solution that would allow communities to take control of the issue. Sexual violence is a public health concern of social injustices. Effective Media Campaigns Local, regional or statewide campaigns can provide a forum for prevention, outreach and raising awareness to create social change. This toolkit will enhance advocates’ abilities to utilize the media for campaigns and other events. Campaigns can include: public service announcements (PSAs), awareness events (Take Back the Night; The Clothesline Project), media interviews, coordinated events at area schools or college campuses, position papers, etc.

  • Inclement Weather Policy
    Inclement Weather Policy College policy is to maintain normal operations in adverse weather conditions. However, if conditions warrant, one of three levels of closure may be implemented. The examples below are an attempt to define increasing levels of urgency. In the end, the nature of the emergency will determine what services should continue and who is then essential to the continued operation of the campus. The distinction between the levels described below is blurred by the specifics of the circumstance at hand. The following is offered as a general guideline. All members of the campus community are valued and urged to use good judgment in deciding if they can safely travel to and from campus in adverse weather conditions. Faculty are urged to make attendance policy considerations for the difficulties that some commuter students may encounter due to adverse weather conditions. These students should be provided the opportunities to make up missed assignments. I. Levels of closure Level I. Class Delay or Early Dismissal: Two hour delay, or early cancellation of classes Examples: ice or snow on roads that can be cleared within two hours of when classes normally begin (8:00 a.m.) or flash flood that will cause dangerous road conditions before the normal close of classes (4:00 p.m.). On duty: all staff and administrators Release: students and faculty Level II. Classes Dismissed: Non-instructional day, campus services open Examples: snow day, recognition of a local or national incident. On duty: all staff and administrators Release: students and faculty Level III. Campus Closure: Inability to conduct business Examples: complete loss of power; response to a local or national incident; President issues a directive to release non-essential personnel; or Governor issues a state of emergency.

  • Press Release for Braxton County Schools Closures Or Delays
    BRAXTON COUNTY SCHOOLS 98 Carter Braxton Drive, Sutton, WV 26601 P (304)765-7101 F (304)765-7148 boe.brax.k12.wv.us Press Release for Braxton County Schools Closures or Delays As possible inclement weather nears, parents and students should be aware of information related to emergency school closings. Braxton County Schools (BCS) uses the School Messenger notification system to place phone calls to families concerning snow delays or closures. Please make sure that your child’s family phone number in the school’s West Virginia Education Information System (WVEIS) is current by contacting your school. This notification system is only as good as the accuracy of the information maintained in our system. Notification of delays/closings will be posted as early as possible. At times, circumstances such as late arriving storms may necessitate a closing or delay later than usual. The goal is to have school, but the conditions must be safe for transportation. It is difficult to make a decision that pleases everyone. Board of Education officials monitor conditions through the state highways, conference calls with the National Weather Service, bus operators located throughout Braxton County, Internet weather websites, and driving of certain bus routes to determine conditions. Braxton County is extreme in the fact that we have variations in elevation and road access throughout the county. Please do not rely heavily on one media outlet for your information. Temperature concerns always present a difficult challenge. The general guidelines follow: School will be delayed when the air temperature is below 0. School will be delayed when the wind chill is -5 and below.
