Week four of National Preparedness Month reminds us to include the whole family in disaster planning—including children and youth. Getting youth involved in planning provides both reassurance and the opportunity for everyone in the family to get on the same page about what to do in case of emergency. Here are some tips to get started:
Review your family emergency communications plan with kids at your next household meeting.
