The information collected here will not be available to the public. It will only be shared with emergency response agencies to improve their ability to serve. http://www.specialneedsutah.org/ There is no substitute for personal preparation. In a disaster, government and other agencies may not be able to meet your needs. It is important for all residents to make individual plans and preparations for their care and safety in an emergency. CUCIL can help you with these preparations...Call the Center and ask to speak with Veronica, our Skills Trainer Coordinator
