BUILD A KIT

In case you have to shelter-in-place at home, work, school or car, have a kit with essential survival supplies

1. Have a Disaster Supply Kit at home with a minimum of three days worth of food, one gallon of water per person per day and including a battery-operated radio, flashlight, batteries, blanket, extra clothes, study pair of shoes, ibuprofen, thermometer, alcohol-based hand wash.

2. Have basic items such as food, water, light, first aid kit and a blanket for your car, work or school. Include extra change should you need to use a phone booth.

3. Have special needs items in your kit like a supply of needed medications for a minimum of three days, an extra pair of eyeglasses or extra cane, surgical mask, and food/water/leash for your pet.
