The disaster preparedness and awareness of the community of Celina Homes IV Subdivision in Barangay Burgos Rodriguez, Rizal was assessed and evaluated. A descriptive cross--sectional research was employed to assess the disaster preparedness among the one hundred eighty--three (183) residents of Celina Homes IV Subdivision, Barangay Burgos, Rodriguez, Rizal. The findings showed that the level of disaster preparedness of the Celina Homes IV Subdivision community in terms of preparations for incoming disasters, knowledge on disaster prone areas, availability of disaster equipment and supplies, safety measures in the community, and seminars and information campaign on disaster preparedness is high, and that the level of disaster awareness of the community of Celina Homes IV Subdivision on different natural disaster like earthquakes, flashfloods/floods and landslides is also high. However, the results revealed that the community lack exposure to seminars and information campaigns that will help enhance and update their readiness to disasters.

In line with these findings, a disaster preparedness infographic was crafted to enhance the disaster preparedness and awareness of the community.
