Make a family emergency comms plan
A one-page plan your whole household can follow when phones are unreliable. It covers an out-of-area contact, meeting places, texting first, set check-in times, and the next channel to try when the last one fails.
Your first 30 minutes after the power goes out
A calm checklist for the first half hour of an outage. Stay safe, save phone battery, text instead of calling, check your alerts, and avoid the mistakes that hurt people.
