Be prepared and proactive in planning for and responding to hurricanes and other hazards.
As many of us know firsthand, caregiving can be one of the most rewarding experiences you will ever have, but it can also be one of the most challenging – especially when you are facing an emergency in your home or a disaster in your community.
