Emergency Survival Program (ESP)

In cooperation with our partners, Los Angeles County has assembled a collection of tips and guides aimed at emergency preparedness. The Emergency Survival Program (ESP), formerly known as the Earthquake Survival Program, is an awareness campaign designed to increase emergency preparedness at home, in the community, at work and at school. ESP was developed by the County of Los Angeles. The California Governor’s Office of Emergency Services (OES) and representatives from Contra Costa, Imperial, Inyo, Kern, Los Angeles, Marin, Mono, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, San Diego, San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara, Santa Cruz and Ventura counties, various cities, Southern California Edison, the Southern California earthquake Center, and the American Red Cross assist in the development of campaign materials and in coordination of the campaign.

Each year a list of monthly preparedness steps is recommended as an easy way for you to prepare for all hazards. You are encouraged to download the ESP materials. A complete list of available publications is listed below. By taking simple actions each month you can help prepare your neighborhood, family and community to be self-sufficient.
