FEMA Disaster Information

 

FEMA offers, for free, Are You Ready? An In-depth Guide to Citizen Preparedness. It is FEMA’s most comprehensive source on individual, family, and community preparedness.   Are You Ready? provides a step-by-step approach to disaster preparedness by walking the reader through how to get informed about local emergency plans, how to identify hazards that affect their local area, and how to develop and maintain an emergency communications plan and disaster supplies kit. Other topics covered include evacuation, emergency public shelters, animals in disaster, and information specific to people with disabilities.The link to order said materials is: http://www.fema.gov/areyouready/
