The Michigan State Police (MSP) is excited to announce that registration is now open for the Student Tools for Emergency Planning (STEP) program.
*_Program Changes_:*
*While the curriculum is still provided free of charge, emergency preparedness starter kits are no longer included due to funding constraints. However, this year we would like to feature one classroom per week on our new MSP Emergency Management and Homeland Security Division (EMHSD) Facebook page. *
*Please show us your preparedness in action through pictures! If you would like your class to participate, you will receive an email with the Facebook information after registration. *
_About the Program_:
The STEP program educates students on emergencies and disasters common to their area and strategies for protecting themselves and their families, how to create a family emergency communication plan and assemble disaster supply kits at home.
STEP provides teachers with emergency preparedness materials at no cost to the school. These materials include an instructor guide and overview, an activity book, supplemental lessons and activities, videos, and printable resources. These materials are available online at MIREADY [ [link removed] ] and contain up to eight hours of instruction. The STEP curriculum can be taught by teachers, school officials, first responders, or volunteers.
Since the start of STEP in 2011, Michigan educators have partnered with the MSP/EMHSD to educate more than 100,000 students on the importance of preparedness. For years, this partnership has been invaluable to our community, and we need you to help us keep it going.
Thank you in advance and have a great year!
If you have any questions about the STEP curriculum, please contact Jane Troutman. <
