This study evaluated the effectiveness of Red Cross emergency preparedness presentations in changing behaviors among different demographic groups. Surveys were given to participants before and after presentations to assess current preparedness behaviors and future intentions. While renters reported fewer initial behaviors than homeowners, post-presentation there were no significant differences in intended behaviors between groups. This suggests the presentations increased preparedness equally regardless of demographics. The goal of reaching diverse audiences through education appears successful based on preliminary results showing decreased differences after learning ways to prepare.
