Practice Makes Perfect

How will you know if your emergency plan works? Practice!

Everyone has a role in emergency planning, so be sure to get all members of your household involved. Practice by getting in touch with your out-of-area contact, and evacuating to your emergency meeting places. Afterwards, get together to talk about the plan.
