Sinopsis

September is National Preparedness Month. Kerri Taylor joins us from Illinois Safe Electricity to teach us about how we can better prepare our homes, families, workplaces, and communities in the event of a natural disaster or emergency.  Focusing on storm preparedness, we discuss in-depth how to prepare an emergency supply kit, how to choose and safely use a generator, and how to ensure we are using carbon monoxide detectors properly. We walk through a number of common scenarios and explain the proper way to respond.Links/Resources referencedready.gov/SeptemberGenerator SafetyWireless Emergency AlertsNOAA Weather RadioIL Citizen Corps Red CrossNeighborhood WatchFire CorpsCivil Air PatrolAmerican Radio Relay League
