Emergency Preparedness

One of my volunteer endeavors is sharing preparedness information with women enrolled in Celestial University. My mind has been going over details of things I would like to better plan for next time, and what I would like to share with the ladies at CU.

Our preparedness planning has been very focused on immediate family. Now I realize we also need a plan for contacting extended family members.

Below is some general information that may be helpful in your own preparedness efforts.

An emergency preparedness checklist by the Federal Emergency Management Agency and American Red Cross includes good ideas on things to discuss, plan, and prepare before an emergency.

FEMA also has a guide to citizen preparedness.

Ready America has ideas on preparing emergency kits, making plans, and being informed.
