The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has launched a collection of accessible resources as part of a new web portal dedicated to emergency preparedness for people with disabilities. Resources include videos with translation in American Sign Language, audio clips, Easy Read summaries, infographics, activity sheets, and more. The goal of these materials is to strengthen accessibility of the content presented in the web portal. 

CDC developed these resources in collaboration with partners and members of the disability community. This information can help people with disabilities consider steps they can take to plan ahead for emergencies and know what to do if an emergency happens in their communities. The web portal also includes an extensive catalog of resources that is filterable by topic area and audience, including disability organizations, first responders, and healthcare providers and clinicians.
