Make Your Plan

The Make Your Plan module helps app users prepare for, respond to and recover from an emergency situation. Users can use the module to upload important documents, add emergency contacts, set emergency meeting places, share their safety status, get preparedness tips and information tailored to their location and unique needs, and much more.

While each user must complete their own profile within the app to receive some tailored content (such as with the emergency supply kit), app administrators must set certain values and identify specific hazards from within the portal.

Setting Values for the Emergency Supply Kit

Setting values in the different categories provides each user with a personalized list of emergency supplies based on the unique needs they have set in their profile within the app. If you do not specify any values, the default ones will be applied.

1. Select MAKE YOUR PLAN from the menu on the left.

2. Select EMERGENCY SUPPLY KIT from the left-hand column.

3. Click EDIT in the top-right corner to change the default values.

4. Adjust the values for each category, if necessary, by using the up/down arrows.

5. Click SAVE in the top-right corner to save your changes.

And you’re done!

Your changes will be automatically displayed within the Emergency Kit section of the MAKE YOUR PLAN app module like so:
