ARE YOU PREPARED FOR THE NEXT PUBLIC SAFETY POWER SHUTOFF?

RICV is a Disability Disaster and Access Resource (DDAR) Center through a partnership with PG&E, CFILC, and other community organizations to help people with disabilities be prepared by:

  • Receiving RICV support in the event of a Public Safety Power Shutoff (PSPS) or disaster.
  • Signing up for the Medical Baseline Program to lower the rate on your monthly energy bill if you require the use of a medical or life support device.
  • Accessing backup portable batteries for those who require power for medical reasons. Individuals who use life-sustaining electrical support will be the highest priority.
  • Providing tools to help you create a disaster plan, including a personalized disaster kit.
