Download a family emergency-plan packet
Use one conversation to turn general preparedness advice into responsibilities your household understands. Print the packet at home or share it through a school, CERT group or community resource page. No account or app purchase is required.
What is in the packet
A getting-started page; three pages for people, responsibilities, contacts, transport and care arrangements; a supplies worksheet; two pocket contact cards; and a practice-and-review sheet. The full source links are below and embedded in the PDF.
Use it with a group
Explain the prompts, then give households time to discuss their own arrangements. Let them keep completed copies privately. Do not collect addresses, health information or children’s contact details as part of a group activity.
You may print and share this unmodified resource free of charge. A source link is appreciated, not required. Sharing does not imply an endorsement or partnership.

How this resource was researched
The planning prompts build on American Red Cross family preparedness guidance; the water worksheet uses CDC storage guidance. The household roles, contact-card layout and review prompts are original worksheet design. This is an independent planning aid, not an official emergency plan or a medical assessment.
