WILDFIRE ACTION PLAN CHECKLISTCal Fire recommends families create a Wildfire Action Plan Checklist, which includes a designated emergency meeting location, as well as several different escape routes from your home and community, and an emergency supply kit.Families are also encouraged to have a plan for pets, as well as large animals like horses and other livestock.Fire officials also recommend that families have an out-of-area friend or relative that can be a point of contact in case your family gets separated, as it may be easier to call or text one person than call or text everyone when systems can be overloaded.Emergency supply kits should include necessary items like prescription medications, eyeglasses, credit cards, flashlights and copies of important documents, but also a three-day supply of nonperishable food items and three gallons of water per person.
