Why We Prepare

Prepare If You Care.

Preparedness is about protecting people, not giving in to fear. A few practical steps can make power outages and other disruptions more manageable for your household.

Start with people, then supplies

1. Know your household. Think about medications, mobility, children, older family members, pets, and the people you may need to contact.
2. Plan for basic needs. Store water and shelf-stable food appropriate to your household, and prepare for sanitation, lighting, communication, and essential documents.
3. Choose useful equipment. Read product descriptions, compare suppliers, and buy only what fits your plan.
4. Practice. Make sure everyone knows where essentials are kept and how to communicate.
