Know your safest way out.

When possible, identify exits from your home and places where you can go if you need to leave quickly.

Thinking about these options ahead of time can help reduce stress during an emergency.

What should go in an emergency bag?

If it is safe to do so, consider preparing a bag with important items such as:
• Identification
• Birth certificates
• Medication
• ATM cards & money
• Keys
• Essential clothing & toiletries
Store it somewhere secure that only you can access.

Who are your safe people?

A safety plan starts with identifying trusted people you can contact in an emergency. This could be a friend, whānau member, neighbour, colleague, or support service.

Having a list of safe contacts ready can make a difficult situation feel less overwhelming.

💜 Save their numbers somewhere easy to access.
