Abstract
Effective disaster preparedness efforts are essential to promote student psychological well-being. Content analysis of 220 high school websites in earthquake-prone areas showed most had no disaster information, and one-fifth had information for persons with disabilities. Public schools had greater disaster content and information for persons with disability than private schools.
