Prepare a Go-Kit
Being prepared means having the supplies you may need in case of an emergency or disaster. Make sure to prepare a Emergency Kit that can last you at least 3 days for an evacuation and 2 weeks if sheltering at home.
Basic Kit – This includes things like water (one gallon per person, per day), non-perishable food, flashlights, and extra batteries. For a more comprehensive list, go to ready.gov/kit.
Make sure to bring supplies, like games, puzzles, or other activities for children.
