comply with any conditions that may be placed on the project as the result of FEMA's and/or
CaIEMA's EHP review will result in the denial of Reimbursement Requests.

assessment or other charge for which SAN RAFAEL is responsible under Section 10.4; or

Get Ready 5'' Grade — A Proposal for a Bay Area Implementation
Problem Statement:
There is currently no disaster preparedness program available that fosters family emergency preparedness
through the efforts of the children within a household. As we have seen with many of our more recent societal
changes, the efforts to change aspects of our culture begin with the education of our youth and making them our
advocates for change. We have seen program after program focus on family disaster preparedness, but we have
yet to see a program that targets the children with the specific purpose of having them, through their actions,
foster and develop their family's emergency readiness and ultimate disaster resilience.
Solution:
To address the above mentioned problem, local agencies within the county of Marin came together to create the
Get Ready 5`h Grade (GR5) program. The GR5 program is a school-based disaster preparedness program
specific to multi -hazard emergency preparedness planning that targets the children but also engages the
participation of the entire family and household. GR5 is taking the first steps in changing our youth's perceived
vulnerabilities to disasters. Through their empowerment and the leading of their family in disaster preparedness
activities, they are complementing our culture of preparedness and turning those vulnerabilities to strengths.
The curriculum engages the students in a classroom setting with a 1 -hour lesson covering a variety of emergency
preparedness topics. Through the in -class lesson, the GR5 program empowers the students as "Chief Inspectors"
of their households and teaches them how to take actions to get their families prepared for an emergency or
disaster event. Through the course, students are prepared to lead their family through the necessary steps in
learning about the hazards and dangers in their area, creating emergency plans, and putting together individual
and family emergency kits.
The GR5 Student Emergency Preparedness Manual has Get Ready Now! activity markers throughout the manual
where students work independently as well as with their family and other members of the household to:
• Establish emergency contacts
• Determine the location of utilities and understand when and how to secure them
• Map their homes, create evacuation plans, identify exit routes out of the house, and mark meeting places
• Identify items to take during an evacuation
• Create or update emergency kits, if needed
• Establish family communications plans
It is through these activities that, while working as a family and household unit, the students are leading their
families in developing their emergency plans and increasing their state of disaster readiness.
The curriculum concludes when the student, as the "Chief Inspector", evaluates their family's level of
preparedness through an Inspection Report. The report outlines basic information and supplies they have ready
and what action steps they still need to take to become prepared for a disaster or emergency event. This
homework is turned back into their teachers and a prize is given to the student. With the returned Inspection
Report, we are able to measure the family preparedness levels.
Marin County Implementation:
The GR5 program has been in place in Marin County since 2008 with demonstrated success. After initial pilot
classes to evaluate the program, a full school year implementation began in 2009. Funds to develop the initial
GR5 program as well as to implement the first few years were provided by existing homeland security grant funds.
Many teachers local agencies, and students have praised this program and find the material very fun and
engaging during the classroom as well as the homework activities.
Statistics
• 2008/2009 - GR5 pilot program taught at 7 schools, 175 students
• 2009/2010 - 1,552 or 57% students participated in GR5 countywide
• 2010/2011 - 2,071 or 73% students participated in GR5 countywide

Get Ready 5t' Grade — A Proposal for a Bay Area Implementation
Regional Implementation Proposal:
Utilizing Marin County's successful GR5 program, the project proposal is to take the existing Marin County
specific GR5 manual and program and revise it to be applicable throughout the Bay Area, encompassing all of its
counties, cities, and towns.
The City of San Rafael Office of Emergency Services (SROES) will work as the project manager and lead agency
to:
1) Establish a GR5 working group (GR5WG) comprised of agency representatives from throughout the Bay
Area to revise the current Marin County GR5 manual into a Bay Area GR5 manual.
2) Develop, along with support from the GR5WG, an outreach and marketing plan describing regional roll
out and implementation targeting the 2012/2013 school year.
3) Conduct GR5 orientation sessions in each of the established Bay Area UASI Hubs to:
• Provide overview of GR5 program
• Describe the processes associated with GR5 implementation
• Identify interest in delivering the GR5 program to local schools.
• Provide information regarding follow-up train -the -trainer (T3) sessions.
4) Print in bulk GR5 manuals for local agency use. While this is not intended to be a forever grant funded
project, initial inventories of manuals and materials will be provided in order to assist in the program
implementation. Costs for publication of materials will be factored into long term sustainability.
5) Conduct one T3 session for each of the four Hubs.
• Provide all GR5 program resources and materials for implementation of the GR5 program by the
local agencies.
6) Develop a website for GR5 materials and resources to be available for all agencies to access. The
materials can be easily downloaded and printed making the program easy to implement and sustainable.
7) Develop, along with support from the GR5WG, a Bay Area GR5 Sustainability Plan to addresses issues
and concerns regarding long term implementation of the program.
8) Develop, along with support from the GR5WG, a Bay Area GR5 Evaluation Plan which determines the
level of regional use of the program as well as effectiveness and value of the program.
Summary:
The GR5 program has demonstrated success in reaching a key demographic. According to the Bay Area SUAS/
Citizen Preparedness Assessment Project, Best Practices from National and International Perspectives, March
2008, the Get Ready 5'h Grade program:
• Takes a strategic approach of building an integrated and multifaceted program involving children/youth
with a school curriculum.
• Emphasizes capacity building and empowerment by teaching the students clear and actionable
preparedness steps to take.
• Expands the general preparedness platform by including mitigation information to protect oneself, one's
home, its contents, and the environment.
• Integrates into credible and existing programs in Marin County, as well the messaging supports State and
Federal agencies and programs, such as Ready.gov, American Red Cross and FEMA.
Marin County has demonstrated success in the implementation and delivery of the GR5 program. With specific
planning and management, the GR5 program can be molded into a Bay Area youth preparedness program with
the same levels of success and value. Key factors in the development of a long term and sustainable regional
program will remain on local agency management and support. Further details and explanations for the transition
from this county specific program to a regional use program will be provided upon request and award of the
contract.
