Today, we recognize the strength, resilience and memory of all Louisiana residents who were impacted by Hurricane Katrina. While many years have passed, the lessons learned from that storm are vital to protecting our homes, families, and communities today.
We are now in peak hurricane season. This means it is important to be proactive and prepared.
Take these steps to protect what matters most:
*Know Your Policy: Check your homeowners and flood insurance policies for deductibles, coverages, and exclusions.
*Create a Home Inventory: Take photo and video records of your belongings.
*Secure Key Documents: Keep policy numbers and insurer contact info stored digitally and in a waterproof bag.
