Disasters can happen to anyone regardless of race, color, religion/creed, gender, gender expression, sexual orientation, age, national origin, disability, marital status, military status and more.
Being prepared is important for the well-being of you and your family. In a real emergency, you will feel calmer, and in control, when you are prepared and know what to do.
Five Safety Steps for any Disaster:
1. Get alerts to know what to do.
2. Make a plan to protect your people.
