Although the idea of an emergency can be scary, being prepared and practicing for an emergency will help you feel safe and confident. Not knowing what to do can lead to panic and confusion, and maybe even an unsafe situation.

​

• The first person you should be able to depend on during an emergency is yourself. Feeling Safe, Being Safe will enable you to do that.

• Knowing your neighbors is important. Share your contact information with them as they are closer than an ambulance or the fire department or the police in an emergency.

• Practicing your emergency plan makes you ready for the real thing so that you can feel safer and more prepared.
