Kids can be emergency helpers too! Knowing what to do before something happens can help you feel safer and more confident.

Ask your family:
- Where is our emergency kit?
- Who should I call if we get separated?
- Where is our family meeting place?
- What should I do during a storm or power outage?

You can even help pack your family emergency kit with things like a flashlight, water, snacks, a favorite small toy, and activities to keep busy.

Prepared kids are powerful kids! Talk with your family and make a plan together.

Emergencies donโ€™t always come with a warning and unexpected expenses can add extra stress when they happen.

Setting aside even a small amount of money each month can help cover things like emergency repairs, temporary lodging, food, fuel, or other unexpected needs.

You donโ€™t have to build it overnight. Start small, stay consistent, and give yourself a little extra peace of mind when the unexpected happens.

As temperatures drop, portable heaters can be a convenient way to stay warm, but they also require extra care.

Keep anything that can burn at least 3 feet away, choose heaters that are UL-listed or tested by another nationally recognized laboratory, and use models with automatic shutoff and tip-over protection.

If using a kerosene heater, only use clear K-1 kerosene, never overfill it, and make sure the room is properly ventilated.

A few simple precautions can help keep your home warm and safe this season.

Now that we are getting into the drier months and harvest season, it is especially important to stay aware of the increased risk of field and equipment fires. Dry vegetation, wind, and hot machinery can allow a small fire to spread quickly.

- Check the weather forecast. If conditions are dry and windy, consider waiting.
- Make sure the property address is clearly visible from the road.
- Know the exact field location or field identification.
- Keep water, fire extinguishers, and fire blankets readily available.
- Have equipment available to create a fire break if needed.
- Keep machinery clean, well-maintained, and regularly checked for fire hazards.
- Use working smoke detectors in buildings, preferably with alerts connected to your phone.
- Have an emergency plan for livestock and know how you would move them if necessary.

A little preparation can make a major difference when every second counts. Stay alert and stay safe this harvest season.

Cybersecurity matters to everyone.

From protecting personal information to keeping important systems running, simple habits can make a big difference. Use strong, unique passwords, enable multi-factor authentication, avoid suspicious links, and keep your devices updated.

A few extra seconds of caution can help prevent scams, data theft, and cyberattacks. Stay alert, stay informed, and think before you click.
