Be Prepared

"Build a kit, Make a Plan, and Stay Informed!"

• Preparing today helps individuals, families, communities, and businesses recover from disaster more quickly.

• Ensure your family, workplace, house or worship, school and neighborhood has discussed possible hazards you may be exposed to.

• Plan for how you will work together to be prepared for the next emergency

These are a few websites that offer a wide range of disaster preparedness guidance and information:

Economists calculate that every dollar spent on preparing for a disaster saves seven dollars in response. Be prepared!
