1. This is a Safe Place
We want everyone to feel safe! Harassment of any kind will not be tolerated and will result in being removed from the group. If someone is being inappropriate then please report it to our Redfora account.
2. Be Kind and Courteous
We are all in this together to create a welcoming environment where all preparedness questions can be answered. Healthy debates are natural, but kindness is always required.
3. No Self Promotion or Spam
This community was built to provide value and give support to one another. Give more than you take from this group. Buying/Selling, Self-Promotion, Spam or Irrelevant Links are not allowed.
4. No Guns
Self-defense can fit into preparedness, but this community is not the place for discussing firearms. Our contributors’ trusted expertise is in collaborative preparedness and community resilience.
5. No Doomsday/Apocalypse Posts
Our mission is to focus on preparedness for common-sense emergencies - the types of disasters and situations that we know we need to prepare for. Count us out for fear-based preparedness.
