What will you do with your extra hour Sunday when we return to Standard Time? You could sleep OR you could perform some basic safety checks! First, make sure your smoke and carbon monoxide detectors are in working order. Then, update your emergency supply kit.

Our very own CERT co-leader Dr. Laura Kressler was deployed to Ground Zero as a part of the @AVMAvets Veterinary Medical Assistance Team (VMAT) to help these👇working dogs.

If the goal is to prevent panic during a public health crisis, there's a proven way of doing it. Level with people. Tell them what we know when we know it. Give people concrete, practical things to do to protect themselves and their families.
