Preparedness grows when knowledge moves through a community. One useful conversation can help someone else prepare.

What is one preparedness tip you always share?

#PreparednessHappensTogether

Know where to turn after a disaster. VOADs and National VOAD members connect survivors with shelters, MARCs and recovery resources.

Prepare at www.ready.gov and visit www.nvoad.org for VOAD information and resources.

The best emergency plan is one your household can actually use. Consider schedules, transportation, medications, pets and access needs. Write it down, share it and practice it.

Preparedness should fit your life, not an imaginary perfect day.

Preparedness is local. Identify the hazards most likely to affect your community, then learn your evacuation routes, sign up for alerts and locate nearby resources.

What is the greatest risk where you live?
