Disasters can happen anywhere and at any time.  Some are due to natural causes such as flooding, wind storms, wildfire, and earthquakes; others are caused by the destructive activities of individuals or groups.

The Cow Creek Band of Umpqua Tribe of Indians is dedicated to the safety of its members and the surrounding communities, and advocates personal preparedness.
