A Meet Up Place
Have a meet up point familiar to each family member. Stress the importance of knowing that everyone is accounted for and safe. When 2 massive earthquakes hit Trone, California on July 5, 2019, Jamie Acevedo was terrified. The 6.4 and 7.1 magnitude earthquakes knocked her house off of its foundation, making it unlivable. Mudslides shut off all roads to the town and electricity and water was lost. The one consolation that Jamie had was that her children were close by. If the kids had been away from home, a designated meet up point would have been very important in providing the peace of mind that everyone important to you is safe.
