Emergency Kits

household goods

In the event of an emergency an emergency kit could help save your family from disaster. The following are tips from www.disastersafety.org on creating an emergency kit to protect your family.

Become familiar with your community’s severe weather warning system. Make certain every person in your family knows what to do when severe weather threatens.

Where you live, it may not be weather that threatens but a disaster like wildfire instead. Everyone should study their community’s disaster preparedness plans and create a family plan. It is also important to learn about the plans of your workplace, children’s schools or day care centers.

Hurricane: Are you fully covered?

A surprising number of Hurricane Katrina victims thought they were fully covered through homeowner insurance, only to learn flood damage was excluded from their policy under all circumstances.

AFI encourages all residential property owners, in hurricane prone areas or not, to educate themselves about the availability of flood insurance and secure coverage as needed. After all, isn’t our home one of our biggest investments?

Keep in mind that there is a 30-day waiting period for a flood insurance policy to begin. So, act today! Don’t wait until “Hurricane Season” is in full force to purchase a flood policy.

To check your relative flood risk and for information about the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) please visit www.floodsmart.gov.
