GDPC
April 6, 2015
American Red Cross report cover titled 'Home Fire Preparedness Campaign Mobilize Guide, Disaster Cycle Services Job Tools (DCS JT PRE/MTC), August 2014.' A collage of black-and-white photos shows volunteers teaching schoolchildren, distributing supplies from a Red Cross disaster relief vehicle, helping repair a home, marching in a community walk, and reviewing maps and documents at a planning meeting.

This guide contains instructions and tools for mobilizing the community to engage with and carry out local American Red Cross Home Fire Preparedness Campaign activities. Specifically, this guide focuses on how to develop a coalition of partners by aligning with current local home fire preparedness initiatives, leveraging existing relationships and building new ones. It also provides guidance on how to mobilize individuals to take action in their own lives and to volunteer for campaign events.
