This March Ready.gov  is running the “It’s Not Luck” campaign. The campaign uses Saint Patrick’s Day inspired graphics and themes to  remind us all, No one should rely on luck when it comes to being prepared for disasters and emergencies. Don’t leave disaster prep to chance.
We’ll be sharing content and social media posts throughout the month to show our support.

Ready.Gov Suggests These First Steps To Being Prepared:

• Know your risk for the area where you live and work.
• Make a plan to lessen the impact of those risks.
• Build a kit to be ready for disasters and emergencies.

Luckily (See what we did there?)  Ready.gov also shared these great tips:

• Sign up for emergency alerts to receive life-saving information from your state and local municipality. www.ready.gov/alerts
• Let your go kit be your lucky charm. Make a go bag today. www.ready.gov/kit
• An insurance policy really can be your lucky charm. Get financially prepared www.ready.gov/financial-preparedness
• During an extended power outage, ATMs and credit card machines may not work. Don’t rely on luck. Include cash in your emergency supply kit. www.ready.gov/financial-preparedness
• Get prepared by having an emergency supply kit already stored. www.ready.gov/kit 
• Learn how to shut off the utilities at home, including water, electricity, and gas.
• Plan how you will leave and where you will go if you are advised to evacuate.
• Remember your pets in your plans! www.ready.gov/evacuation 
• Snap photos of important documents and save them online or in a secure place you can access during an emergency.
• Set up group text lists so you can communicate with friends and family at the same time during emergencies.
• Have external power sources available to charge phones and other devices in case of a power outage.
• Create a budget that includes an emergency savings fund. www.ready.gov/financial-preparedness
