Other vital health services include traffic safety, educational talks and demonstrations to community groups, and AIDS Education programs and materials.

Disaster Response . . . Red Cross provides food, clothing, and shelter. Families affected by disaster are given a 24-hour on-call response network providing immediate help in any disaster or emergency.

Disaster Preparedness/Planning . . . Individual and community safety is enhanced because the Red Cross works with community leaders and emergency service agencies to plan and prepare for disaster.
