Disasters can happen at anytime and anywhere! Whether it be a technological or accidental hazard (power outage, nuclear power plant accident, etc.), a natural disaster (hurricane, tornado, flooding, fires, etc.), or a terrorist hazard (explosions, chemical threats, etc.), it is important that you are prepared! Considering the different types of disasters you may be susceptible to is also helpful when preparing, but there are basic steps you can take in order to prepare for any type of disaster.
