Hurricane Preparedness Week May 10 & 11: Help your neighbor, write down a plan

Many Americans rely on their neighbors after a disaster, but there are also many ways you can help your neighbors before a hurricane approaches. Learn about all the different actions you and your neighbors can take to prepare and recover from the hazards associated with hurricanes. Start the conversation now with these Neighbor Helping Neighbor strategies.

Learn about all the different actions your community can take to prepare and recover from the hazards associated with hurricanes: ready.gov/neighbors.

Hurricane Evacuation Planning for People with Special Needs

Accessible Emergency Information: Emergency Preparedness Topics and formatted the information to be friendly to deaf, blind, and limited sight populations. 

Browse the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Emergency Disaster Education Network Resources for Disaster Preparedness for Older Adults and Caregivers.

The time to prepare for a hurricane is before the season begins, when you have the time and are not under pressure. If you wait until a hurricane is on your doorstep, the odds are that you will be under duress and will make the wrong decisions. Take the time now to write down your hurricane plan. Know where you will ride out the storm and get your supplies now. You don’t want to be standing in long lines when a hurricane warning is issued. Those supplies that you need will probably be sold out by the time you reach the front of the line. Being prepared, before a hurricane threatens, makes you resilient to the hurricane impacts of wind and water. It will mean the difference between your being a hurricane victim and a hurricane survivor.
