Hurricane Helene is a stark reminder of the critical importance of preparedness in the face of extreme weather. A recent Heluna Health report shows that less than 60% of U.S. adults are prepared for severe storms and power outages, with younger, lower-income, and minority communities particularly vulnerable.
