*September is National Preparedness Month! Have a Plan and Be Ready!*
<https://cabq.us20.list-manage.com/track/click?u=b697b563bdb0acc3e117a1409&id=b215b7d1b1&e=648f2ff06c>
It’s
National Preparedness Month, when everyone is strongly encouraged to
prepare themselves, their families and pets, and their homes, for potential
disasters. You never know where or when disaster might strike, and having a
plan of action is the best way to make sure you’ll be ready.

   - Have an emergency plan in place. Know if you will shelter in your
   home, or meet in another location. Ensure everyone in your family knows and
   understands the plan, and practice it regularly.
   - Ensure you and your family always know how to get in touch with each
   other.
   - Remember that in an emergency, a text message may get through if a
   call does not, because texts require less bandwidth. So consider texting as
   an option for communication in an emergency.
   - Have a place you can all meet up if you’re apart when disaster strikes.
   - Make sure you know what emergency plans are in place at your
   children’s school, in the event of emergency, lockdown, or other disaster.
   - Have a 3-day supply of bottled water in your home or in your car if
   you must evacuate.
   - Keep an extra supply of medications, a first aid kit, glasses and
   contact lenses, personal hygiene items, and flashlights and extra batteries
   in your home or in a portable kit.
   - Remember your pets and have a contingency plan to keep them safe,
   evacuate them safely or transport them in the event you must leave your
   home.
   - Safeguard your family’s critical documents, such as titles and deeds,
   identification papers and cards, medical and insurance cards, military
   service information if applicable, and other financial, household and
   medical information. Either make copies and store them in a waterproof
   safe, store them with trusted family and friends who don’t live with you,
   or consider storing them in a bank safety deposit box.
