Why this workbook exists
The MAGs that wait until things go sideways are already behind.
Most preparedness resources tell you to store food and buy a generator. This workbook tells you something harder: how to build a small, trusted network of people who have prepared, trained, and planned together — before an emergency makes that impossible.
“This workbook is a framework. It teaches the doctrine, gives you the templates, and walks you through the decisions you need to make. It does not contain your group’s operational information. That is deliberate.”
— From the preface
The information that matters most — member rosters, cache locations, frequencies — stays out of this binder. The workbook will show you exactly how to set that up.
What you get
Doctrine, templates, and every decision your group needs to make.
Every worksheet, every framework, every question you need to answer before the first crisis arrives.
Inside the workbook
Fourteen sections. They build on each other.
Working out of order is possible. But the early sections set the foundation for the later ones.
What this workbook is — and isn’t
Not a binder full of addresses and frequencies.
That kind of workbook is a liability. This one is designed so that losing it, or having it found, costs you nothing operationally.
