Emergency Ready Checklist
Build your household emergency plan step by step: a 72-hour kit, copies of critical documents, and a family communication plan. Everything you enter stays in your own browser — nothing is sent anywhere.
Preparedness guidance follows the widely recommended basics (water, food, documents, a meeting plan). For hazards specific to your area — hurricanes, wildfires, floods, winter storms — check your city or county emergency management office for local guidance. In a life-threatening emergency, dial 911.

The kit list is sized to the people and pets you enter.
