Get Prepared

Make a Plan.

Planning ahead is the first step to a calmer and more assured disaster response. Make sure your family creates and practices a family disaster plan.

Build a Kit

Assemble a disaster supplies kit in the at home and in your vehicle(s). What you have on hand when a disaster happens can make a big difference. You should plan to store enough supplies for everyone in your household for at least three days.

Get Trained.
