6.5 Ready, Set, Go! Program <br />The Ready, Set, Go! Program seeks to develop and improve the dialogue between fire departments <br />and the residents they serve. The program helps the fire service teach individuals who live in high risk <br />wildland fire areas—and the WUI—how to best prepare themselves and their properties against <br />wildland fire threats. <br />%� -fie ready. <br />Talk to lataf fire department <br />personnel ala irtt proparing.vnrx horne <br />1oi wiUland Im ilynat. <br />work to pr"t, your prorw.i1y by <br />creating dahand ble spam <br />El rlean up or relocate combustible <br />material tram around your horria <br />Ct Kedp grass rrx,wed short <br />'.I Trim trots and I]ufilr, ;, to a1owing <br />ample; spwa o t,otwoon yfAn taoa r; <br />and landscape vegetation <br />-- Be alert <br />Prepare P- 'go kit' and include <br />€telnk such as <br />Rob Wion mcdk-�il.Ul <br />1 Emergency supples <br />I:': lmport-wt doc unimts <br />Create your own acuan plan <br />€ lan.and prdetir,d mutlipk, axil <br />mutes prom yc,ur home <br />mid neighhorl ooil <br />Asslrn a ms;A€ng place In case <br />you arR "tm.-Rtnd <br />Make �LtrE• � o rrt-, i dmiliar with your <br />Inca! omoigeirry nalitic:alion and <br />auactiralKW x.V ?Li lr' <br />4 1- Act early <br />H Remain aim and koop yourso;l <br />intom'Kic! of the siluation. <br />l5d Get ynur'go kit" and leave well <br />before the Impending threat <br />reaches your community or <br />neighborhood tollowtng a planami, <br />arfi €tile muto. <br />r' CMjXJrdtc, with loa auftrUriti� <br />dia ing Pmcuatlon and <br />re-entry procra. <br />The program's tenets help residents be Ready with preparedness understanding, be Set with <br />situational awareness when fire threatens, and to Go early when necessary. The Ready, Set, Go! <br />Program works in complementary and collaborative fashion with the Fire Adapted Communities <br />Coalition and existing wildland fire public education efforts (e.g., Firewise) and amplifies their <br />message to individuals about emergency preparedness and evacuation. Ready, Set, Go! provides <br />educational and outreach materials to limited English speakers, standardizing the message and <br />ensuring that information is accurate across languages. Washington State Emergency Management <br />Division provides additional resources for educational outreach to limited English speakers. <br />Community Wildfire Protection Plan 53 September 2018 <br />
