In addition to Minnesota’s email list, there is also a weekly tip of the week offered by New York City’s Office of Emergency Management. They are helpful and often communicated with a some humor (which I think is very important in this field). For example, the most recent tip was titled “Smother Your Mother”.
This Sunday is Mother’s Day, and OEM encourages you to use a few minutes of your special day with mom to fill out an emergency reference card. If you’ve already got a complete one, check with your loved ones to make sure the information is up to date. This year, help your mom get all her ducks in a row — keep your family’s emergency contact information in one place.
Other eye-catching headlines have included “Call Aunt Millie in Philly” (emergency out of town contact), “Your Backhand Is Not Only For Tennis” (fire evacuation) and “Avoid Hide and Seek by Choosing A Place To Meet” (emergency meeting place).
If you want to sign up for the New York weekly tip, go to the OEM website.
