National Preparedness Month | Emergency Kit

This National Preparedness Month, we are reminding you to build your emergency kit.


An emergency kit should have everything you need to survive for several days. Keeping your kit stocked with necessities like food, water, and medical care can make the difference in the face of a disaster. Consider unique needs of your family. Include supplies that might be needed by pets, older adults, and those with disabilities in the event of an emergency.
