Disaster Preparedness
During a disaster, Wi-Fi is one of the first conveniences we miss because we cannot obtain the most up-to-date information.
Our September 26 program will address what you need to know about increasing connectivity.
On October 1, join SBP, a national social impact organization, for their talk about disaster resilience and recovery.
Then, on October 15, we conclude our disaster series with inspiring stories of how an Arkansas-based organization helps their neighbors.
AARP Arkansas is proud to bring together community leaders who are making an impact regarding natural disasters. Join us for these informative events and take a step towards a more resilient community.
