Description: In an emergency, you may need to contact your neighbors. It is easier to have a network in place before it is needed. Set up a way to easily connect with others, whether that is by exchanging emails, phone numbers, or simply getting to know each other a little more so it is easy to go knock on their door.

Tips:

• Are there existing organizations within your area that already connect people? For example, neighborhood organizations, block clubs, or religious groups. This could be a good place to start.
