Former FEMA Administrator Craig Fugate often stated that emergency and disaster preparedness is the responsibility of all citizens. As FEMA Administrator, he made citizen preparedness a priority for the agency. Therefore,

• Describe the types of things you have done to prepare for emergencies or disasters.
• Explain whether you are adequately prepared for the disasters you may be exposed to.
• If you do not feel you are as prepared as you would like to be, what would you do to make yourself adequately prepared? Where would you go to find out how to best take those actions?
• Provide an example of a situation where you wish you had been prepared for the situation OR where your preparation proved to be beneficial.
