In order to encourage voluntary activities of the evacuation shelter Steering Committee, which is made up of local communities, schools, and governments, and to facilitate the operation of the evacuation shelter in the event of a disaster, the Yokohama City Regional Disaster Prevention Activity Promotion Grant (hereinafter referred to as the "Subsidy") will be issued.
You will need to submit documents to receive the grant.

In Yokohama City, elementary and junior high schools are designated as evacuation shelter as evacuation sites during the earthquake.
There are 27 bases in Tsuzuki Ward  , and the Steering Committee of each site plays a leading role in conducting the evacuation shelter Training Program.
　We invite you to join us as an opportunity to confirm the points when evacuating to refuge (evacuation shelter).
In addition, please take this opportunity to check stockpiling at each home such as emergency carry-out bags, and prevent furniture from falling or falling.
In order to minimize the damage caused by the earthquake, it is said that it is important for residents, communities, and governments to enhance disaster response capabilities and cooperate. .
In order to protect yourself and your family from disasters, it is important for each person to prepare in advance and make decisions and actions in the event of a disaster.
In addition, local communication is important on a daily basis for helping neighbors and for the evacuation shelter to function sufficiently.
　In the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake in January 1995 and the Niigata Chuetsu-oki Earthquake in July 2007, many people were rescued from houses that collapsed with the help of neighbors.
　In order to prepare for disasters, the Yokohama City Hall and the Tsuzuki Ward   Office will further expand these efforts to improve disaster prevention capabilities.

Each evacuation shelter conducts training on the establishment and operation of refuge. The schedule and content of the training are determined sequentially at each site.
　(Example) Base establishment training, gathering training, refugee reception, information transmission training, rescue equipment handling training, daily life equipment handling training, supply of hot meals training, supplies reception and distribution training, emergency water supply training, advocate measures, etc.
