Personal Preparedness Assessment Report
The Personal Preparedness Assessment Workbook teaches you how to score 59 hazards across natural, technological, and human-caused categories — for your own household, in your own location.
The Personal Preparedness Assessment Report does the scoring work for you. An analyst applies the same methodology in the workbook to your specific address, scores all 59 hazards using local data, ranks the top risks, writes rationale for every elevated and high hazard, and translates the output into capability targets aligned to PREP-CON triggers.
You get a customer-specific deliverable that drops directly into your workbook to complete Step 1: Identifying and Assessing Risk and Step 2: Give Threat and Hazard Context — so you can move straight to the Capabilities Assessment, Logistics Assessment, and Personnel Skills sections without slowing down to score 59 hazards yourself.
This report is built to be used with the Personal Preparedness Assessment Workbook. The report covers Steps 1 and 2 — threat scoring and context. The Capabilities Assessment, Logistics Assessment wheel, Personnel Skills and Abilities wheel, and Response Planning all live inside the workbook. Order the report on its own if you already own the workbook, or get both together below.
Who this is for
- Workbook owners who want the assessment done by an analyst so they can focus on capabilities, logistics, and skills — the parts of the workbook only they can do.
- Mutual Assistance Group (MAG) leads who need a defensible, methodology-anchored hazard ranking to drive group planning conversations.
- People newer to preparedness who know they should be planning for something, but want a professional starting point grounded in their actual address — not a generic checklist or a worst-case fantasy.
- Existing FFTP customers who already have the workbook and want to skip the scoring step and go straight to action.
Included in every report
- 59 scored hazards across natural, technological, and human-caused categories — Probability, Impact, Spatial Extent, Warning Time, Duration
- Composite Risk Factor for every hazard, with HIGH / ELEVATED / MODERATE / LOW / NEGLIGIBLE banding
- Top Five Risks for your specific address with analyst summary
- Analyst rationale narratives for every HIGH and ELEVATED hazard
- Geographic anchors identified — nuclear facilities, dam systems, hazmat corridors, rail mainlines, flood basins
- Six suggested capability targets with PREP-CON trigger maps
- Local resources reference — county OEM, LEPC, NOAA frequency, RACES/ACS frequencies, nearest trauma center, EPZ status
- Cross-references back to specific PPA Workbook sections
What this isn’t
- Not an insurance underwriting product or premium calculation
- Not a real estate disclosure document
- Not a substitute for a FEMA flood determination, professional engineering assessment, or geotechnical survey
- Not emergency management guidance issued by your county or state OEM
- Not a guarantee that listed hazards will or will not occur
- Not a replacement for the workbook — it completes Steps 1 and 2 so you can run the rest yourself
How much time does this save you?
Honestly scoring 59 hazards for your specific address means tracking down data from FEMA flood layers, USGS seismic maps, NRC facility data, PHMSA pipeline records, county Hazard Mitigation Plans (typically 200 to 400 pages), NOAA climatology, and a long list of similar federal, state, and county sources. Most people stall here.
Realistically, this is a 20 to 30 hour research project. The Personal Preparedness Assessment Report does it for you in about a week, address-specific, methodology-anchored, with analyst rationale you can defend.

Why “county-scoped”?
Most personal and household risk lives inside the county where you sleep at night. The geographic anchors that drive your top hazards — the nuclear plant, the rail mainline, the dam system, the hazmat corridor, the flood basin — are typically within a 25- to 50-mile radius of your front door, which for the great majority of U.S. addresses falls inside a single county or its immediate neighbors.
If you need a wider operational picture — communications gateways across a 50-, 100-, or 300-mile radius, MAG-scale mutual aid coverage, or HAZMAT/nuclear/dam infrastructure beyond the county line — that’s what the Area-Specific Assessment Report (ASAR) is built for. The two products are complementary: the Personal Preparedness Assessment Report tells you what to plan against; the ASAR tells you where the response infrastructure is.
Frequently asked questions
I own the workbook. How do I use my discount code?
The discount code is printed inside your Personal Preparedness Assessment Workbook. Enter it at checkout on the Retail product page to get the report at the same price Patreon members pay — $49.95 instead of $179.95. No Patreon membership required.
Do I need the workbook to use the report?
Yes — this report is designed to be used with the workbook. The report covers Steps 1 and 2 (threat scoring, context, capability targets), but the Capabilities Assessment, Logistics Assessment, Personnel Skills, and Response Planning all live inside the workbook itself.
How is this different from the ASAR?
The Personal Preparedness Assessment Report scores hazards and ranks risk for one address; the ASAR maps operational infrastructure across a 50-, 100-, or 300-mile radius. Different questions, different products. Many serious preppers will eventually want both.
What’s the turnaround?
Turnaround begins when your intake email is returned, not when you check out. Typical delivery is about a week.
Who sees my address?
Only Nick, during production. The address is used to generate the report and is not retained in any marketing or subscriber database. Customer-identifying details are removed from active analyst records 90 days after delivery.
