- Register your cell phones for emergency alerts notifying communities of an emergency affecting your community.
- Create an Evacuation Go-Kit and a Shelter-in-Place Kit including items for your pets. A checklist is available on AlertSanDiego.org.
- Practice evacuating your household. The goal is to evacuate in 15 minutes or less.
The disaster plan template and supply lists for evacuation and sheltering are also available when you download the SD County Emergency app for free.
