Family crisis plan ABC training at Haabersti activity centre
On the evening of March 27, local community members gathered at the Haabersti activity centre for a Family Crisis Plan ABC training, organized in cooperation of the Crisis Research Centre and the Tallinn Municipal Police Department.
The training focused on how every family can be better prepared for unexpected situations, with a particular emphasis on coping with the disruption of essential services such as electricity, water, and heating. Special attention was given to the panel building environment, as Väike-Õismäe is largely made up of 5- and 9-storey apartment buildings that must continue functioning even during crises.
Several important topics were addressed during the evening, including:
- How to create a family crisis plan that takes into account the needs all members of the family;
- What essential supplies should be available at home for managing without help for seven days;
- How to keep the oneself informed during a crisis, and which channels to use for receiving reliable information;
- What should be discussed at the co-operative housing association level?
The aim of the training was to raise awareness and share practical tips for being better prepared for service disruptions. The importance of community support was also highlighted—cooperation and communication with neighbors and people living nearby can be crucial in times of crisis. Participants received a worksheet to help them go through and fill out their own family crisis plan at home.
This training event was part of a broader program aimed at increasing the crisis preparedness of Tallinn residents and strengthening community resilience. We extend our sincere thanks to all participants and the Tallinn Municipal Police Department for their contribution to building a safer and more informed city!
