BUILD YOUR SAFE HUBS EMERGENCY KIT
When a major earthquake disrupts our community, having the right supplies on hand is critical for an immediate, organized response. To support this, every designated location is equipped with a pre-stocked Safe Hub Kit. This standard inventory provides your neighborhood with the foundational tools necessary to set up operations, coordinate neighbors, and begin recovery efforts safely before outside help arrives.
BASIC SAFE HUB KIT
The Basic Safe Hub Kit acts as a starting point for your neighborhood’s emergency response. Stored in easily identifiable containers like large totes and a 50-gallon mobile tool box, the pre-stocked inventory focuses heavily on organization, communication, and basic site safety.
ADDING TO YOUR KIT IS ENCOURAGED
While the provided kit materials listed above are standard within a Safe Hubs Kit, each individual Safe Hub is encouraged to supplement their kit with additional items. Consider:
- Think about places you’d sit
- Think about what you’d need to eat
- Think about medicines you’d need
