• Raise an alarm
• Call 911
• Leave Valuables behind
• If your clothes catch on fire. Don’t run just stop and roll over.
• Cover your nose. The smoke is more dangerous than the fire.
• Safety Evacuation spot.
• Contact your local Red Cross. They can help provide food and provisions
• Notify your insurance company about the fire
