Is Your Family Ready to Communicate in an Emergency?

[Michael Caraballo]

Campus Community:

If an emergency happens, your family may not be together. Cell service may
be limited, roads may be closed, or you may not be able to reach each other
by phone.

Taking a few minutes now to make a family communication plan can help
everyone know what to do.

When creating your plan, think about how your family will receive emergency
alerts, how you will contact each other if you are separated, who you will
contact if you cannot reach each other, and where you will meet. Consider
the needs of children, older adults, people with disabilities, pets, and
service animals. Keep a paper copy of important contact information, share
the plan with everyone in your household, and practice it.

Ready.gov <http://ready.gov> has a Family Communication Plan that you can
complete, print, and keep with your emergency supplies.
