SILVER SPUR WILL BE HOLDING OUR DISASTER DRILL ON OCTOBER 21st We encourage all families to also prepare for disasters at home. Here are steps to help you plan and prepare for any emergency recommended by Ready.gov.
Step 1: Make A Plan: Talk to your friends and family about how you will communicate before, during, and after a disaster. Update your plan based on COVID-19 recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Step 2: Build A Kit: Gather enough supplies to last for several days after a disaster for everyone in your home. Don’t forget to consider the unique needs each person or pet may have in case you have to evacuate quickly.
Step 3: Prepare for Disasters: Limit the impacts disasters have on you and your family. Know the risk of disasters in your area and check your insurance coverage.
Step 4: Teach Youth About Preparedness: Talk to your kids about how to prepare for emergencies and what to do in case you are separated.
Learn more about National Preparedness Month and the steps you can take to prepare all year long.
