Disaster can strike at any time and often without warning. Kick off the new year right by following these three simple steps to get prepared: 

(1) get or build an emergency supplies kit, 

(2) make a plan that includes evacuation information and emergency contacts for staying connected with loved ones during a disaster and 

(3) be informed about the types of disasters that you may face and the best ways to respond to them


3 steps to preparedness

  1. Get a Kit

    Consider the following when assembling or restocking your kit to ensure your family is prepared for any disaster:

    • Store at least three days of food, water and supplies in your family's easy-to-carry preparedness kit. Keep extra supplies on hand at home in case you cannot leave the affected area.
    • Keep your kit where it is easily accessible.
    • Remember to check your kit every six months and replace expired or outdated items.
  2. Make a Plan
    Planning ahead will help you have the best possible response to disaster.
  3. Be informed
    There are three key parts to becoming informed:
    1. Get Info
    2. Know Your Region
    3. Action Steps

You can also Get a Kit, Make a Plan, and Be Informed by taking the Be Red Cross Ready online educational presentation.
