Are You Ready? 
Do you have:

A Go Bag?

An Emergency Supply Kit?

 


Basic Disaster Supplies

There are six basics you should stock in your home:

  • Water
  • Food
  • First aid supplies
  • Clothing, bedding and sanitation supplies
  • Tools
  • Special items
Keep the items that you would most likely need during an evacuation in an easy-to-carry container. Possible containers include a large, covered trash container; a camping backpack; or a duffle bag.
