Emergency Response Kit
Suggested Contents/Supplies
"Nurture the Living, Care for the Dying
and Honor the Dead"
Each of us could be called upon at a moments notice to respond to an emergency scene, natural disaster or terrorist attack. Once on scene you may not be able to leave for some time. What sort of things will you need? Will you be prepared?
