You don't. Volcanic activity is monitored in active volcanos, but the predictions of an eruption are slim at best. It is a guess about when it will erupt and if an eruption looks eminent people can be moved out of the area like when Mt. Saint Helen erupted.

If theres a volcano what can citizen do prepare for this hazard?

If there is a volcano, all anyone can do is leave. When the a Volcano in the Philippines destroyed an American Air Force base, the Planes flew to Eglin in Northwest Florida. If there are warning earthquakes indicating the mountain will explode, a person should pack and leave. With a volcano eruption like happens in Hawaii or Sicily, then a person has time to pack before moving. As we know from experiences on the Windward Islands, it is best to move before the poisonous gas phase comes.
