• Local maps: Local maps of areas around
your home, place of business and children's
schools can help you get around if roads are
closed. Even people who feel they know the
areas where they live, work and attend school
like the back of their hand are urged to keep
maps of such regions readily available.
• Cell phone with chargers and a backup
battery: Backup chargers and batteries can
make it possible to maintain access to potentially
lifesaving information and facilitate
staying connected with loved ones and
neighbors.

success, and that utility extends
beyond one's career. Preparation also
is a vital component of personal safety,
particularly in relation to natural disasters.
Knowledge of storms and weather-related
events such as hurricanes, tornadoes and
floods can be lifesaving, and various government
agencies encourage adults and children
alike to learn what they can do to stay safe
should a storm strike. But it's equally vital to
personal safety to assemble a disaster supplies
kit. Ready.gov, the official website of
the United States Department of Homeland
Security, recommends individuals gather
and maintain the following items as part of
a basic emergency supply kit.
• Water (one gallon per person per day for
several days). Keep in mind that the water is
not only for drinking, but also for sanitation.
