About the Book

When the Grid Goes Down

Sheltering-in-Place Preparedness: When the Grid Goes Down is a practical preparedness guide focused on helping individuals and trusted groups plan for emergencies before they happen. Ricki Connor explores family readiness, food and water storage, emergency health, communication, power outages, home safety, bug-out bags, and preparedness beyond supplies.

The book also encourages readers to research location-specific hazards, practice “What-if?” scenarios, maintain emergency resources, and prepare for both sheltering in place and evacuation when necessary.
