The Emergency Survival Program (ESP), formerly known as the Earthquake Survival Program, is an awareness campaign designed to increase emergency preparedness at home, in the community, at work and at school. ESP was developed by the County of Los Angeles. The California Governor's Office of Emergency Services (OES) and representatives from various cities, counties (Imperial, Inyo, Kern, Los Angeles, Mono, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, San Diego, San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara, Ventura, Yuma), Southern California Edison and the Southern California Earthquake Center assist in the development of campaign materials and in coordination of the campaign.

The focus of material on this page is public and personal safety, and is provided in printed form at very low or no cost as well as being available here. That does not place these items in the "Public Domain". Do not change, edit, alter, add or delete a portion of the documents you download from here. If you want to customize the information, do so with additional sheets you have written which are separate from the documents you download from here.

Please let us know at cert-la@usa.net when you download and use these materials. We in turn will inform the authors. We hope that telling them how widely their information is being used will inspire them to write new items and keep their already published materials up to date.




We have collected ESP Focus Sheets from prior years. They are organized by subject, and contain the most recent versions. The date of the Focus Sheet is included in the file name, so if changes or updates are made, you will be current. (Some of the Focus Sheets are also available in Family Steps to Survival).
