In 1994, in response to the Northridge Earthquake in the Los Angeles area, Scott Haskins was asked to write a pamphlet entitled ""How To Respond After An Earthquake."" 500,000 units were distributed to the public through the Human Resource department of The Bank of America Corporation. Following this event, he was asked to write ""Save Your Stuff in the Workplace"" because there was (and is) no other information available to the corporate and government world.
""Save Your Stuff"" fills the need for public outreach and education on the subject of Emergency Preparedness and Disaster Response. There is no other resource available to provide this information and education in an entrepreneurial way. The presentation of the educational information is unique in that it translates the professional conservation/preservationese into plain public English.
