September is National Preparedness Month, and a little planning can make a big difference if an emergency happens.

Do you know where your family would meet if you had to evacuate? Who would everyone contact if you got separated? What route would you take? And does your plan account for kids, pets, medications or mobility needs?

Whether it’s wildfire, severe weather, or a power outage, know your risks and make a plan before you need one.
