Emergency Financial First Aid Kit (EFFAK)

If a disaster or other emergency strikes, you may only have seconds or minutes to react. In those critical moments, your focus will be on your family’s safety. Once the immediate danger has passed, having your homeowners, renters, or flood insurance policy, bank account information, and other records and contacts in one secure location will help you recover faster.

The free EFFAK gives you the peace of mind that your important financial information is at your fingertips. The EFFAK helps you organize critical financial, medical, and household information. It includes a checklist of important documents and forms to compile your relevant information. Download the EFFAK to get started.
