With the summer months just a few weeks away, it’s a great time for New Yorkers to restock on sunblock, dust-off the air-conditioner and learn how to recognize the symptoms for a heatstroke. On the latest episode of New York City Emergency Management's Prep Talk podcast, Deputy Commissioner of Community Engagement Herman Schaffer, and Human Services Specialist Jocelyn Rajaballey discuss the Cooling Center Program, extreme heat, and the importance of community groups to provide support during emergencies.

En honor a abril, mes de agradecimiento a los voluntarios, el nuevo episodio de ¡Prepárate! destaca la importancia de la preparación comunitaria con Doris Garrido, cocapitana de las Organizaciones Comunitarias Activas en Desastres (COAD) de East Harlem.
