Tiffany Yearwood, Emergency Management Director for Charlton County, Georgia, joins Accessibility Now to break down what real disaster readiness looks like for people with disabilities. She walks through how to build a personalized go bag, why the 72-hour rule matters more than any generic checklist, and why signing up for your county's voluntary disability registry can be a lifeline before you ever need it. Tiffany also addresses the uncertainty around FEMA's changing role and what Georgia's local emergency management teams are doing to stay prepared. The resources below are a strong starting point — use them to build a plan tailored to your specific needs.
