Neighborhood Disaster Plan

In case of a wide scale emergency, the following is a brief overview of what to do in an emergency-

• Your family is your first priority, assess their needs
• If possible, check on neighbors, assess their needs
• Check in at the neighborhood command post/meeting center (LDS Meeting House located at 11777 S. Willow Wood Dr.) to relay your needs
• Once checked in, those capable will be sent in teams to assess the needs of those who have not checked in
• The command post will be coordinating with local and city authorities to address needs and manage resources

We are told in a wild scale disaster we should plan on being on our own for at least three days before emergency responders will be available.

Emergency Contacts

Place the letters 'ICE' (in case of emergency) in front of the names of your emergency contacts on your cell phone so responders will know who to call.
