Let's get ready! #ReadyOK

September is National Preparedness Month, a nationwide effort to help individuals, families, and communities be ready for any emergency. Disasters can happen anytime — from severe storms and wildfires to power outages and floods. The more you prepare now, the better you can protect yourself and those you love.

🛠 This Month’s Preparedness Goals:

1. Make a Plan – Know where to go, who to call, and how to reconnect if separated.

2. Build an Emergency Kit – Include water, non-perishable food, medications, flashlights, batteries, and important documents.

3. Stay Informed – Sign up for local alerts and follow trusted emergency management sources.

4. Help Others – Share preparedness tips with friends, family, and neighbors.

Preparedness starts with you. Take one small step today and encourage those around you to do the same. Every action matters.

Learn more ways to prepare for everything and protect yourself or your family.
