A Good Emergency Preparedness Kit Protects Your Family
Before a disaster strikes, make sure you have emergency supplies stored away in a safe, accessible place. Periodically check on your disaster emergency preparedness kit and replace anything that may be getting old, such as food, drinks or first aid supplies.
