They learn about community readiness plans for emergencies and explore the many careers related to emergency preparedness.

Either the Emergency Preparedness merit badge OR the Lifesaving merit badge is required for the rank of Eagle Scout. Scouts who earn both badges may count the second badge as an elective.
