I hope to introduce improved preparedness into the main stream for practical disaster mitigation and to help reduce stress. As a point of reference, I have been fortunate to receive the following endorsement:

"Thank you...regarding your vital information on Preparedness...In particular...useful information for people to have in terms of property insurance and business recovery issues...a good reminder of ways of helping prevent stress by Preparedness..."
--Disaster Mental Health, American Red Cross, National Headquarters, USA
