The Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency (PEMA) and the Pennsylvania Department of Aging, in conjunction with the York County Office of Emergency Management visited Windy Hill on the Campus Senior Center to discuss preparedness activities for older Pennsylvanians.

The "Preparing Together - Are You Ready PA?" program provides resources available to senior centers and other organizations across the Commonwealth.
"Personal preparedness is the key to readiness when dealing with disasters that affect your home or family," said PEMA Director Randy Padfield.

The information and resources used in today's presentation were developed with older Pennsylvanians in mind."
