Preparedness and You with Wanda Vollmer
With the recent fires in Los Angeles I thought it was important to bring resources to our community here and am so grateful to have Wanda Vollmer of Peace of Mind Preparedness on today to help us understand the importance of BEing prepared, what can get in our way of that, and some amazing tips and strategies to have peace of mind should any disaster / emergency occur.
As a child living on a ranch in San Luis Obispo, Wanda remembers the wildfires that would frequently threaten their property and livestock and will never forget being awoken in the middle of the night to evacuate during one particularly fast-moving fire. At the age of 24, she created her first preparedness and communication plan for her family and knew she found her calling.
Wanda worked for the American Red Cross as a Community Engagement Manager, serving as the lead functional expert for Red Cross Preparedness programs and community partner development and reached over 10,000 individuals with community disaster education programs in addition to recruiting, training, and managing volunteers.
She currently serves as Captain of the Carmel C.E.R.T. Team (Community Emergency Response Team). This program focuses on disaster preparedness, search and rescue, team organization and disaster medical operations. They work side by side with first responders who rely on us during disaster situations. As a passionate community volunteer, Wanda is proud to serve many service organizations in her community.
