A simple, step-by-step guide to help you build 3 months of supplies and survival skills—all in just 1 year.
Do you know the #1 reason people give up on emergency preparedness before they even start? It's not time, and it's not money. The #1 reason people give up on prepping is because it's so overwhelming!
Take this website, for example. We have over 1000 articles on emergency preparedness and survival. People scroll through these articles and think, “Do I start with a bug out bag? What about emergency food? Which supplies should I get first? Which skills should I practice first?”
It's all too much. How are you supposed to prepare for a disaster when you don't even know where to begin? That's why I created The One Year Urban Survival Plan. I wanted to make emergency preparedness simple, even for people who feel overwhelmed or don’t know where to begin.
This plan gives you a clear roadmap, breaking everything down into manageable steps. Each month, you'll focus on specific tasks: building your bug out bag, stocking up on food and water, gathering emergency supplies, and learning basic survival skills.
Instead of sifting through endless information and wondering if you’re doing it right, you'll know exactly what to focus on. By the end of the year, you'll have a fully stocked bug out bag, 3 months of food and supplies, and the skills to handle almost any disaster.
Whether you’re preparing for a short-term disaster like an earthquake or hurricane, or a long-term disaster like a pandemic or economic collapse, The One Year Urban Survival Plan will help you get ready—one step at a time.

Why Follow the One Year Urban Survival Plan?
1. It’s Doable
You don’t need to be an expert or invest a ton of money upfront. The plan spreads the cost and tasks over 12 months. And if that's still too much, you can stretch it out over 2 or 3 years.
Another option is to share the responsibility with your friends and family. For example, one household could focus on ways to collect and stockpile water, while another household could focus on off-grid power and lighting options. It's up to you!
2. It’s Practical
Instead of focusing on survival skills like tracking wild animals or starting a fire with a bow drill, this plan focuses on practical steps you can take to prepare for common disasters like floods, wildfires, power outages, and more while living in an urban or suburban environment.
Even if you have zero experience with emergency preparedness and survival, you can still follow this plan if you're willing to set aside a little time every day to work on it.
3. It Builds Confidence
Instead of feeling overwhelmed, you'll feel yourself making progress month by month, building the confidence you need to take your preps even further. By the end of the year, you'll be fully confident that you can get through 99% of the disasters that could happen.
