The strategy
Plans A through E.
One system for education, training, marketing, and community engagement. Every guide, workshop, and checklist rolls up here.
Private assessment
A tailored plan for the home they actually live in.
PurgeProof can assess a household's property, safety, location, supplies, services, and training needs, then turn it into a practical action plan.
01
Walk the property
Review structure, access, utilities, neighborhood risk, storage, security, and evacuation constraints.
02
Map the sanctuary
Turn the home into a safer base: what to reinforce, stock, install, configure, or remove.
03
Build the budget
Prioritize the work by risk, cost, and urgency so the household knows what to do first.
04
Train the people
Practice small-disaster response, major-disaster routines, and protection of the family and property.
