In the event of an emergency turn on your television and radio and listen for Emergency Alert System (EAS) information, instructions, and updates.

“Are You Ready?” is an in-depth guide to citizen preparedness. It is FEMA's most comprehensive source on individual, family, and community preparedness. “Are You Ready?” provides a step-by-step approach to disaster preparedness by walking the reader through how to get informed about local emergency plans, how to identify hazards that effect their local area, and how to develop and maintain an emergency communications plan and disaster supplies kit. Other topics covered include evacuation, emergency public shelters, animals in disaster, and information specific to people with disabilities. “Are You Ready?” also provides in-depth information on specific hazards including what to do before, during, and after each hazard type.
