Family Preparedness Checklist

A family preparedness plan gives the people you trust a clear place to start when important information is needed.

What to organize

  • Record essential family and professional contacts.
  • Create an inventory of important documents and where they are securely stored.
  • Document practical wishes and information you want loved ones to know.
  • Review the plan after major family, financial, insurance, or address changes.
