FEMA has issued a press release detailing considerations for family members with disabilities:
"Do you or a family member have a disability? Will you be responsible for the care of an elderly adult in case of an emergency or disaster? Do you have small children that will need extra supplies and care in the event of a disaster? If the answer to any of these questions is 'yes,' then you should consider now what extra steps to take in your disaster plan.
Residents should be mindful that disaster preparedness is not a 'one size fits all' concept. Those with special needs require special preparations."
