Prepared, Not Scared

National Preparedness Month should be every month not just for the month of September!

National Preparedness Month is every September. The theme for this year's National Preparedness Month was " Prepared, Not Scared". 

The fine people over at READY.GOV have put together some ideas to help you in your evacuation strategy, your prep for disaster and other emergency need to knows.

Here are a few of the ways they have segmented those ideas:

• Week 1: Save Early for Disaster Costs
• Week 2: Make a Plan
• Week 3: Youth Preparedness
• Week 4: Get Involved in Your Community’s Preparedness

Obviously you should dig deeper into what actionable steps you and your family can and will do in the event that something life-changing does happen.

These procedures should be practiced all year long so they become muscle memory and can be done basically in your sleep! This way you will always be prepared!
