Family Emergency Planning

Family Emergency Planning is a practical, all-hazards guide designed to help households prepare before disaster strikes.

It walks families through creating emergency contacts, choosing meeting places, building go-bags, planning for evacuations and sheltering in place, protecting children, older adults, pets, and people with special needs, and organizing important documents and supplies.

The guide also includes checklists, planning worksheets, first-10-minutes actions, and a one-page family emergency plan that can be printed and kept where everyone can find it.

A clear, practical resource for families who want to be better prepared for storms, fires, outages, evacuations, and other unexpected emergencies.
