RECORD YOUR EMERGENCY
CONTACT INFORMATION
Members of your family may not be together at home when an
emergency occurs. Children may be at school, in daycare or
visiting friends. Adults may be at work or elsewhere. Make
plans to be able to contact each other in order to reunite.
Gather a list of your emergency contact phone numbers.
Every family member should carry a copy of these numbers
with them at all times. Adults can keep a copy in their wallet or
store numbers in a mobile phone. Children can write them in
a school agenda, or keep a copy in a backpack. For younger
children give a copy to the child’s teacher or daycare provider.
IDENTIFY A MEETING PLACE AWAY FROM YOUR HOME
Select a meeting place located well outside of your neighbourhood where everyone will go
if you cannot return to your home in an emergency.

Make plans ahead of time about who will pick up
