The Preparedness Capability Checklist succeeds where other survival lists fail. You won't find outdated or useless equipment here. Instead, the checklists in this book focus on the capabilities you need to do in order to survive any number of disasters or crisis events. With this book, you can actually answer the question, "Am I prepared?" One of the issues with survival lists and inventories is they are just lists of supplies and cannot tell you how well prepared you are to meet the challenges of a survival situation. The Preparedness Capability Checklist steps you through these capabilities in 18 distinct categories, covering four primary levels of preparedness: Portable, Minimum, Extended and Advanced. Each category lists which tasks you need to accomplish for each level. By focusing on the tasks and not specific items, the Preparedness Capability Checklist allows you to customize your preparedness plan to meet your family's needs. Be as prepared as you want to be and know when you've accomplished it. The Preparedness Capability Checklist succeeds by allowing for individual needs while accomplishing common preparedness goals.
