GOLETA, CA, September 13, 2023 – Are you part of a homeowner’s association or group that would like to learn more about how to prepare for an emergency? Here is your chance. Get your group together and request a free Community Disaster Education (CDE) course offered by the City of Goleta’s Emergency Services Coordinator. There is no better time to request a class than now, during National Preparedness Month. Sign up for a CDE in English or Spanish at www.CityofGoleta.org/CDE .
A CDE is a free, one-hour introductory course for groups of 10 or more that teaches residents how to become more prepared in the event of a disaster. A CDE course can be held anywhere and during most hours; during a lunch break, after hours at a Homeowners Association (HOA) meeting, or at a weekend community gathering.
