This book was released on 2019-08-17 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication's aim is to give the everyday urbanite/suburbanite a starting point to build a buffer of safety and security in the face of a disaster situation, as resilience is built through knowledge and preparation. Disaster preparedness is only as complicated as you make it, therefore there is little reason why anyone living in urban environments (including apartments and condos) cannot implement effective measures to mitigate localized disasters. The basics should already be in your home. With the appropriate supplies, knowledge and an effective plan in place, you need only organize yourself so as to have them readily available should something happen. From personal survival, supply staging, security, checklists and strategies, the True North Tradecraft Disaster Preparedness Guide will give you a starting point to develop your own preparedness plan as well as spark new ideas to those who are already well prepared.
