Disaster preparedness is no longer the sole
concern of earthquake-prone Californians or hurricane victims. For
Americans, preparedness must now account for man-made disasters
 as well as
natural ones. Knowing what to do during an emergency is an important part
of being prepared and may make all the difference when seconds count.
Some of the things you can do to prepare for
the unexpected, such as assembling a supply kit and developing a family
communications plan, are the same for both a natural or man-made
emergency. With a little planning and common sense, you can be better
prepared for the unexpected. You can learn a lot by clicking on the
