Everyone Needs to Be Prepared

Your family may not be together when disaster strikes, so it is important to plan in advance: how you will contact one another; how you will get back together; and what you will do in different situations

You may also want to inquire about emergency plans at places where your family spends time: work, daycare and school. Talk to your neighbors about how you can work together in the event of an emergency. You will be better prepared to safely reunite your family and loved ones during an emergency if you think ahead and communicate with others in advance.

Being ready for any type of emergency is as simple as planning ahead. Just like having a working smoke detector in your home, having an emergency supply kit and developing a family communications plan will put the tools you may need at your fingertips, no matter where you are in an emergency. Don’t wait, get Ready now!
