Map Your Neighborhood Beaverton

Map Your Neighborhood Beaverton "Map Your Neighborhood" (MYN) is a program designed to help neighborhoods prepare for disaters and is offered through the City of Beaverton's CERT Program.

Map Your Neighborhood is a simple idea. Neighbors gather at a home in the neighborhood for a 90-minute meeting where you learn the 9-steps to take immediately following a disaster. Together you develop a neighborhood skills and equipment inventory. You learn where the gas meters are in case of a landslide or earthquake where gas lines may break. Most importantly, during the Map Your Neighborhood g

athering, you meet your neighbors and together you think through what you might need to do in a large-scale disaster when 911 might not be able to send help. You learn to be self-reliant as a neighborhood, to organize effectively and to help neighbors in need, so the community's emergency responders can attend to the large rescues and the ongoing restoration of services. Knowing our neighbors has a multiplying effect. In a disaster, the first person to help will likely be a neighbor. Our daily sense of security is enhanced when we know our neighbors and we are looking out for one another.
