TRANSCRIPT:  I'm Jim Bassham with Tennessee Emergency Management Agency.

Emergencies can happen anytime, anywhere.

Our agency focuses everyday on getting the public ready and aware of all hazards.

You are an essential member of our emergency management team and preparedness is crucial to the success of any emergency response.

Preparedness is an individual responsibility.

I'm an emergency manager and I'm asking you to be prepared now so we'll be better off after a disaster strikes.
