Description:
The Jessie Peterman Library presents the program "Prepared For What Comes Next", a disaster preparedness event, on Saturday, June 27, 2026.

Join the United Way of Southwest Virginia for a free, community-focused disaster preparedness presentation. This one-hour session walks participants through what to realistically expect when disaster strikes in our region and practical steps they can take right now to protect themselves and their families.

Built around three core pillars, Stay Informed, Have What You Need, and Know What To Do, the program covers local hazard awareness, emergency kit building, family emergency planning, and how United Way's Citizen Recovery Program can help after a disaster.

Each family in attendance will receive one free disaster preparedness bucket while supplies last.

No prior experience is needed and all are welcome.

The Jessie Peterman Library is located at 321 West Main Street in Floyd, VA.
