September is National Preparedness Month

September is National Preparedness Month, so there is no better time to focus on what you can do in your own home to prepare for the next emergency or disaster.  One of the most important parts of preparation should be the creation of a home emergency kit.  This kit should include at least one gallon of water per person per day for several days, at least a several-day supply of non-perishable food per person, and other equipment such as a first aid kit and flashlights with extra batteries.  For a complete list of what should be in your kit, go here:  https://www.ready.gov/kit

Each family and business in Kent County should take a few moments to review preparedness information this month and update your safety plans.  For more information (including translated information in Spanish), click here:  https://www.accesskent.com/Sheriff/getready/
