All Hazards PSAs Released

March 12, 2009

Baton Rouge – The Governor’s Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness (GOHSEP) has released Public Service Announcements (PSAs) now airing on radio and television throughout Louisiana to educate citizens on what to do in the event of an emergency and how to minimize damage to property and prevent loss of life.

“Get a Game Plan is an aggressive GOHSEP campaign focused on protecting you from hazardous dangers anywhere in Louisiana - from flooding to tornados to ice storms – as well as how to mitigate or reduce the risks we face from these hazards,” said GOHSEP Director Mark Cooper.

Appearing in the commercials are former NFL star defensive back and LSU Head Football Coach Jerry Stovall, Governor Bobby Jindal, Louisiana State Police Col. Mike Edmonson and GOHSEP Director Mark Cooper. “A goal of the campaign is keeping the message fresh to avoid apathy on the part of the public toward a potential disaster,” said Cooper. “We are fortunate to have positive, influential people such as Coach Stovall to help us educate the public.”

Prior PSAs have included appearances by current LSU Football Head Coach Les Miles and members of the rock band Better than Ezra. 

GOHSEP is an all-hazards agency that manages federal and state disaster declarations which include natural and man-made disasters.
