It is with great pleasure that the Governor’s Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives (GFBCI) and the Alabama Department of Homeland Security (AL DHS) announce the fifth annual Be Ready Camp. This camp provides an opportunity for sixth graders across Alabama to become Youth Preparedness Delegates, receive a commendation from Governor Bob Riley, and carry the message of preparedness and safety to their schools, communities and families.

This camp has been featured in international Homeland Security journals and received national media attention, including coverage for the Cable News Network (CNN). Additionally, the camp is considered a best practice by the White House and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.

The files below are brochures and registration information regarding Be Ready Camp. Students may recommend friends as long as they meet the eligibility requirements. The submissions must be received by May 1st and acceptance letters will be mailed after the deadline.
