November- Getting Emergency Supplies Month



You have probably heard of a "72 hour kit" or a "disaster supply kit", but what does that really mean for your household? Disasters are stressful times. By taking a few minutes now to think about what you would need in a disaster you save a lot of anxiety and inconvenience later on.


THE GOAL: Be prepared to handle emergencies without outside assistance for 72 hours.
Do One Thing (choose one thing to do this month)

Gather your emergency supplies in an accessable place.
Stash some cash in case ATMs and credit card machines are not usable in a disaster.
Create an emergency supply kit for your pet.
Have at least one regular phone that is not cordeless.
