Emergency Preparedness

Action Plan for April: Shelter and Heat

• Understand basic shelter and heating needs, skills and equipment.  Gather or update equipment for your family.  Practice shelter and heating skills.
• You can only last three to four hours in extreme conditions without adequate shelter. Maintaining your body temperature in hot or cold temperatures is vital for survival. This can be hard to do if you are out of your normal environment or the power to your home is out.   

Plan:

• Download this Packet  Click Here

• Review the Links in the text
• Resources are at the Bottom of the Page
• Customize to your needs

Prepare:

• Start or Update your Emergency Shelter Supplies

• Start with basic items to keep warm for 72 hours  
• Learn the science of sheltering and layering so you can create lifesaving shelters
• Gather sheltering supplies like blankets, tents, sleeping bags, Mylar, cold weather clothing, and clear plastic sheeting. Include sheltering items in disaster supply kits
• Learn how to keep you home warm or cool as needed if the power goes out
• Learn how to safely build, start, and put out a fire using a variety of different starting and extinguishing methods, then practice

      Practice:

• Hands on practice has been shown to be the best way to be able to respond well in an emergency.   Dry run various scenarios and the anxiety of the emergency is greatly decreased.

• Gather your supplies for clothing, shelter and heat.  Are they adequate and useable?
• Set up your shelter (warm room, tent, other)
• Practice using planned heat supplies safely.
• Kids love to participate.  Let them help setting up a warm room or shelter.  Perhaps teach them about safely using a fire for warmth.
• Help them feel comfortable in that situation.

Addiction Recovery Program

Addiction’s destructive behaviors negatively affect not only the addicted individual but their loved ones. The Church’s “Addiction Recovery Program” and its accompanying “Help for Spouses and Family Program” shares steps and principles of hope, guidance and healing available to each of us through the Savior’s Atonement. Anonymous, confidential and understanding help is available in weekly meetings that can be found by opening this link. We welcome you in joining others who started this healing path before you.
