September is National Preparedness Month and it’s a great time to make sure you are organized for emergencies.

Do you have a first aid kit assembled? Are your favorite photographs digitized and saved securely online? Do you have a fire escape route for your home and office? Does your family have local and out-of-area meet-up plans in case you ever get separated in an evacuation? If not, now is the time to get organized.

The Homeland Security and FEMA website Ready.gov has additional tips for getting your home and business prepared for an emergency. Also, sound off in the comments about ways your family has prepared and organized for emergencies. The more information we share, the more prepared all of us can be.
