Emergency Binder

Peace of mind, gathered in one calm place. This 64-page family emergency binder holds everything the people you love would need to know if you were suddenly away: medical details for each person, who to call, where the papers are, how to shut off the water, what calms the youngest at bedtime, and what to do with the dog.

Every section has a filled-in example from one fictional family beside a fillable page for yours, so you always know exactly what to write. Type into the PDF in the free Adobe Acrobat Reader, or print and write by hand.

NO PASSWORDS ON PAPER, BY DESIGN

There is nowhere to write passwords, PINs, full account numbers or ID numbers. The money and digital pages record which accounts exist and who to call, and a single "password manager hint" line points your trusted person to the password manager you already use.

• US Letter, A4 and A5, all three fillable. The A5 edition is laid out for A5 (98 pages, same content, larger type), not shrunk
• A5 fits a standard A5 ring binder; Letter and A4 fit a 1.5 in (40 mm) binder
• Ink-friendly: light pages, photos only on the cover and section openers
