Through funding from State Farm, Sustainable Long Island has launched a Disaster Preparedness Program. The focal point of this program is a Storm Readiness Assessment, which aims to collect data to determine if Long Islanders are better prepared for natural disasters since Superstorm Sandy.  

The 18 question online survey focuses on, but is not limited to: emergency kits and supplies, evacuation plans and strategies, and access to information or knowledge about what to do before, during, and in the aftermath of large-scale storm.

All data gathered from the Storm Readiness Assessment will be used to identify any gaps that exist in current levels of resident preparedness. To identify improvements that can be made moving forward, Sustainable Long Island will share this information with key leaders and decision makers, such as the American Red Cross, Nassau County Department of Emergency Management, Suffolk County Office of Emergency Management, NYS Office of Storm Recovery, the Federal Emergency Management Administration, and Long Island Volunteer Organizations Active in Disaster.
