After the earthquake of 2014, organizations across Napa County came together to develop emergency response strategies and services to respond to natural disasters more effectively. The result was the formation of COAD – Community Organizations Active in Disaster. COAD’s website at napavalleycoad.org has in-depth, pertinent and up-to-date information in both English and Spanish so that our community can be adequately prepared for the next disaster.
As a member of COAD and since we are now in wildfire season, we offer a selection of helpful "to-do" links for the safety of our readers.
