Are You Prepped for a Disaster?

Disasters such as hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, and earthquakes can strike with little or no warning. September is National Preparedness Month, making it a good time for you and your household to make a plan if you need to evacuate your home or get trapped inside for days. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) recommends discussing the following questions when creating an emergency plan:

How will I receive emergency alerts and warnings?
What is my shelter plan?
What is my evacuation route?
What is my household communication plan?
Do I need to update my emergency preparedness kit?

You’ll also need to consider your household’s specific needs, make an emergency plan, and practice it with your family members. These tips pertain to your home, but remember that emergencies can happen anywhere. Visit FEMA’s website, Ready.gov, to learn more about preparing for emergencies at home, at work, and on the road.
