Preparedness That Makes Sense

Ready5 is an independent emergency preparedness resource created to make planning clearer, more practical, and easier to approach. The focus is on understanding risk, organizing ahead of time, and using reliable information—not fear or speculation—to guide decisions.

Preparedness does not require panic or perfection. It starts with a realistic plan, appropriate supplies, and tools that support awareness and coordination. Ready5 brings these elements together through educational content, government-aligned resources, and practical frameworks designed for everyday use.

Through ongoing development, Ready5 also supports awareness of GUARDIAN EDEN, a personal alert and notification concept intended to help people stay connected with trusted contacts when expected check-ins or responses do not occur.
