Luna. “Natural disasters remind us how quickly lives can be changed and how important it is for communities to come together during times of crisis. Here in Los Angeles County, we live in a region where a major earthquake is not a matter of if, but when. While our Department continuously trains and prepares for large-scale emergencies, every resident plays a critical role in preparedness.
