Emergencies can happen at any time. Does your Family know how to get in touch with each other if you are not all together? Before an emergency happens, have a family discussion to determine who would be your out-of-state point of contact, and where you would meet away from your home - both in the neighborhood and within your town. 

Let them know you're ok! Pick the same person for each family member to contact. It might be easier to reach someone who's out of town.
