Emergency Documents

One thing that is commonly forgotten in emergencies is important papers. We will list out documents that you will want to take with you in case there is an emergency. We also suggest that you store these documents in page protectors or you get them laminated and store them in a central location, such as a binder. You can make copies of originals if you want to keep them in a safe place. Here is a link to a blog of someone who put together an emergency binder and she has print outs for you to use as well.
