Prepare in a Year 2025: Plan for Family Reunification
Our Prepare in a Year program helps you get ready for disasters, like large-scale earthquakes that isolate us from outside help for weeks or longer. By tackling one simple task per month, you can get your household in good shape by the end of a year.
The task for July is to make sure you have a plan to get back together again If you are apart from your family when disaster strikes. Do you have a meeting place? Have you identified other adults who can help keep your children safe if you are away? What about any elderly, dependent parents? Do you have a plan for them? Are you familiar with the plan on Bainbridge for reuniting children who are at school?
