Emergencies can be overwhelming, especially when you’re caring for someone with medical, mobility, or sensory needs. Our latest blog post breaks down practical, accessible steps for creating a family emergency plan, understanding local alerts, and preparing for situations like severe weather, power outages, or chemical releases.

In a recent community presentation at a gathering of 1in6 Support's Midland, Michigan Group, Midland County Emergency Management Coordinator Jennifer Ber offered practical, compassionate guidance to help families prepare for the unexpected. You can read the recap here.

We'd also love to hear from you:

  • What has helped you feel more prepared?

  • What challenges come up when planning for emergencies?

  • Are there tools or resources you wish existed?

Your experiences can help others feel less alone and more empowered.
