June is Men's Health Monthโ€”a great time to think beyond physical fitness and focus on preparedness, too.

Summer in North Georgia can bring severe thunderstorms, flash flooding, power outages, extreme heat, and other emergencies. One of the best ways to protect yourself and your loved ones is to build or update an emergency preparedness kit before disaster strikes.

โœ… Water (at least one gallon per person per day)
โœ… Non-perishable food
โœ… Flashlight and extra batteries
โœ… First aid supplies
โœ… Medications and medical items
โœ… Cell phone chargers and backup power sources
โœ… Important documents
โœ… Pet supplies, if needed

Being prepared isn't just smartโ€”it's part of protecting your family's health and safety.
