The Emergency Financial First Aid Kit (EFFAK), a joint publication from Operation HOPE and FEMA, can help you prepare financially and provides tips to reduce the financial impact of disasters on you and your family.
When it comes to emergencies, Americans face more than just weather. We also deal with flat tires, broken water heaters, and sudden medical expenses. Both big disasters and unexpected bills take time, money, and resources away from other priorities. So why aren’t we doing more to get prepared?
The EFFAK includes checklists of important documents and forms to capture information vital for disaster recovery that fall into the following four categories:
• Household Identification
• Financial and Legal Documentation
• Medical Information
• Household Contacts
