The Pillowcase Project is a free interactive
preparedness program designed for children in grades 3 through 5. The program
aims to increase awareness and understanding of natural hazards, teach safety
and emotional coping skills, as well as the importance of personal
preparedness. Through the presentation, students learn the best ways to stay
safe and how to create their own emergency supply kits by packing essential
items in a pillowcase for easy transport during a disaster. Students will
receive a digital workbook and will be encouraged to decorate and personalize
their pillowcases and share what they’ve learned with friends and family.
