September is here, and it’s National Preparedness Month — a reminder that readiness knows no season. Whether it’s a natural disaster, a power outage, or any unexpected event, being prepared can make all the difference.
This year’s theme is “Start a Conversation.”
Starting a conversation today can help you and your family to take action to prepare. Here are some simple steps you can take to get started:
• Create an Emergency Plan – Discuss with your family or household members what to do in case of an emergency.
• Build an Emergency Kit – Pack essentials like water, non-perishable food, medications, and first aid supplies.
• Stay Informed – Sign up for local alerts and warnings and keep up with news updates.
Over the next four weeks, we will provide you with steps you can take to be proactive and prepared when disaster strikes.
