Abstract:
There are six basics you should stock for your home: water, food, first-aid supplies, clothing and bedding, tools and emergency supplies, and special items. Items you would most likely need during an emergency are marked with an asterisk (*). Store them in an easy-to-carry container such as a
large, covered trash can, a camping backpack, or a duffle bag. Keep your kit in a convenient place known to all family members; keep a smaller
version of the kit in the trunk of your car.
