As a Skillshare Host:

  • As a Host, you provide the location, reach out to your neighbors and friends, and coordinate a potluck.

  • No experience necessary.

  • We will set you up for success by providing you with ready-made flyers, a guide to hosting, and a signed copy of The Pacific Northwest Disaster Guide by Henry Latourette Miller.

  • The first 10 people to sign up (including the host) receive a free ready-bag and a printed copy of the Aware and Prepared Curriculum!

The #1 thing you can do to prepare for an emergency is to get to know your neighbors!
