A Message from the NJHCC
As National Preparedness Month 2026 begins, the New Jersey Healthcare Coalitions (NJHCC) would like to recognize the healthcare professionals, emergency managers, public health partners, EMS professionals, long-term care providers, and many others who work every day to keep New Jersey's communities prepared and resilient.
This year's Ready Campaign theme, "Americans Stand Ready," highlights the role we all play in preparing ourselves, supporting those who depend on us, and strengthening the communities we serve.
Throughout September, NJHCC will share weekly preparedness messaging, resources, training opportunities, and stories from across New Jersey. Each week will connect information from Ready.gov with practical considerations for our healthcare and emergency preparedness partners.
Ready Campaign’s 2026 National Preparedness Month Focus
Being prepared starts before an emergency occurs. Ready.gov provides tools and resources to help communities understand their risks, make plans, build preparedness skills, and take action to become more resilient.
This September, NJHCC will build upon the “Americans Stand Ready” message by exploring what readiness looks like across New Jersey - from staying informed and protecting those who depend on us to strengthening response capabilities and building connected, resilient communities.”
