A nonprofit, 501(c)3 organization of community volunteers working in partnership with Yavapai County Emergency Management
ACTIVATION POLICY
At the first notice of an incident that could threaten human life and/or property in areas where there are barn animals, the Yavapai County Office of Emergency Management (YCOEM), alerts LASER. Immediately, LASER sends a “heads-up” text message to all LASER shelter volunteers, asking for their availability for scheduling over the next few days. The large animal shelter is set up by LASER’s Quick Response Team, ready to open to Yavapai County residents once an evacuation GO order is issued by the Sheriff or at the direction of YCOEM.
I AM READY!
LASER is kicking off a new program to assist in emergency readiness.
- You can download the Fillable Intake Form below, take your own photos and embed them in the form. Instructions are provided.
- LASER can do this for you at upcoming events at the Chino Valley Equestrian Park and at local horse shows. We will prepare your Intake Forms before disaster strikes, with photos of your equines, and provide copies of the shelter rules and waiver. When you must evacuate your home, you can be ready to present these documents at the shelter. This will expedite the intake process, meaning less time waiting in line, and ensure accuracy of animal and owner identification. We’ll let you know when and where we will offer this service on our Facebook page and email blasts. Watch for opportunities!
