Hey UBC! Emergencies happen, and everyone has a role to play in emergency preparedness. That’s why it’s so important that each and every one of us have the tools and know-how to respond appropriately.
Don’t wait until it’s too late — get informed, get prepared, and get ready to take action now! We want you to be ranger ready, which means being emergency ready! Explore all the helpful resources in this website and in no time, you’ll be able to say with confidence that you’re “Ranger Ready”!
