If a hurricane hits, you may need to survive on your own for several days. Build an emergency kit now so you’re ready!

Start by gathering enough food (non-perishable), water (one gallon per person per day), medicine, and basic supplies to last your household several days without power.

Remember to consider everyone’s specific needs; this may include personal hygiene products, infant formula, pet supplies, toys, or comfort items for children.

For a full emergency supply checklist and more preparedness tips, visit ready.gov/kit or the county's Public Safety webpage at myokaloosa.com/ps/home. ↖️
