September is National Preparedness Month. FEMA, in partnership with Citizen Corps and the Ad Council are asking Americans to prepare themselves and others for all types of disasters. Through FEMA’s campaign, information will be distributed about caring for the elderly and those with disabilities and building an emergency supply kit, complete with care for pets. The four steps for preparing are be informed about emergencies and identify sources of local information, make a plan for what to do in an emergency, build an emergency supply kit and get involved.
