Can Health Professionals do something to diminish the risks in big cities? Civilian society is in need of protection and training when emergencies occur. The objective is to develop the capacity to feel competent when daily violence occurs and to diminish the risks of possible tragic, daily and unexpected events. Inexperience and lack of knowledge has a direct impact on Public Health. Through orientation and training with appropriate tools we prevent and diminish the effects on daily catastrophes: insecurity, violence, loss of material things, mourning to elaborate for loss after tragedies, car accidents, effects on financial emergencies, social alert states, etc.

Through questionnaires and observation directed to city residents data was generated for evaluation. We reached the conclusion that non-government organizations (NGO) and government organizations (GO) together can diminish the effects of daily tragedies. Approximately 4500 citizens were trained directly and indirectly to give them the tools and techniques to support groups in communities in order to diminish the risk among high impact psychosocial events and abrupt events produced by nature or men that expose persons to disruptive situations that need to be solved. The modules include First Aid, Psychological Support, Debriefing and Stress.

Diminishing the risks depends on the people's vulnerability, resilience, social, institutional and family support groups and training. The use of participative techniques allows participants to assimilate the content of the course directed to men and women from different ages. It is necessary to generate an emergency culture for a society at risk.
