Did you know there are two (and only two) preparedness plans that a family needs to put in place to prepare for over 50 potential disasters?
To quote a song by the Clash, these two simplified preparedness plans are “Should I Stay or Should I Go?”
Or, in proper preparedness terminology, a family needs to have a Shelter-in-Place plan and an Evacuation Plan.
Is it difficult to build or implement these two plans? Not really. Both of these plans can be build with one to three days each. In fact, the shelter-in-place plan can probably be created in less than an hour, if you follow our process.
Will these two preparedness plans cost a lot of money? Again, not really. I would bet that half of the items that you would need to implement a shelter-in-place plan are already in your household. A basic evacuation plan can be implemented in a few days or by purchasing a pre-made ‘go-kit’ that you can just grab and go if required or if you are encouraged to leave your family.
