I call myself a prepper sometimes, but I try to be sane about it. I'm more interested in basic boyscout skills and a little planning ahead, I'm not interested in stockpiling thousands of dollars of food and weapons.

Things non-crazy organizations suggest for a preparedness kit:

• FEMA / ready.gov   (U.S. Federal Emergency Management Agency)
• FEMA (PDF)
• CDC (Centers for Disease Control), specifically for people with disabilities
• Red Cross
• Weather.gov
• state level
  • California
  • Colorado
  • Florida
  • Georgia
  • Maryland
  • Massachusetts
  • Michigan
  • Nevada
  • Texas
  • Virginia
  • Wisconsin
• REI
• US State Department
• Navy Region Southeast
• North Carolina State University — Cooperative Extension
• Sonoma State University
• Florence County, WI health department
