Make a Family Communications Plan

Start at the dinner table. Gather all family phone numbers and write them down. Decide how and where to meet up in an emergency. Simple steps...


Your family may not be together when disaster strikes. During a major disaster local phone systems and cell phone systems may be jammed.

  • Plan how you will contact one another and what you will do.
  • Establish an out-of-town contact, perhaps a relative or friend.
  • Establish a meeting place outside your neighborhood, perhaps a family member or friend.
  • Make sure everyone has the contact numbers and addresses of the out-of-town contact and the meeting place.
  • Make sure family members have each other's contact numbers at work, school, daycare, etc.
  • Keep phone numbers up to date.
