🚨 Emergency preparedness matters more than ever.

NYC officials are urging residents to:
✅ Create an emergency support network
✅ Pick a family meeting place
✅ Write down important medical information and phone numbers
✅ Prepare for children, seniors, pets, and people with disabilities
✅ Review insurance coverage for flood and wind damage

Every household should have:
🎒 A “Go Bag” for quick evacuation
🏠 A 7-day home emergency supply kit
📱 Emergency alerts enabled on mobile devices
