Work Together

How can your community work together in a disaster?

• Talk to your neighbors about how you can work together during an emergency.
• Find out if anyone has specialized equipment such as a power generator or has expertise, such as medical knowledge, that might help in a crisis situation.
• Decide who will check on your older neighbors, as well as neighbors with disabilities and other special needs.
• Develop back-up plans for children in case you can't get home during an emergency.
