Localized Ready Programs
Georgia
The Georgia Emergency Management Agency (GEMA) localized the Ready Campaign in January 2008, including three television spots (Meeting Place, Cell Phone, and Tomato Paste) and two radio spots in varying lengths (Meeting Place and Food). The ads fulfill to a local Georgia Web site, http://www.ready.ga.gov. The Metro Atlanta UASI Region's citizen preparedness project also localized the television PSA in September 2009. GEMA held a Severe Weather Awareness Ceremony and Ready Georgia launch event hosted by Governor Sonny Perdue in January 2008
