DCDisaster Calendar

Editorial policy

Clear, useful, non-sensational preparedness information.

Disaster Calendar prioritizes practical preparedness, recovery organization, and official-resource discovery. We avoid graphic, sensational, or exploitative framing.

Editorial standards

  • Prefer official agencies, public-health authorities, meteorological offices, emergency-management organizations, and recognized expert institutions.
  • Separate general preparedness information from emergency instructions.
  • Use calm language and avoid fear-based headlines.
  • Update evergreen guides when sources or public guidance materially change.
