A FEW OF OUR WONDERFUL FRIENDS
Special 9/11 2021 Edition
The voice of practitioners is one which should never be silenced. Earned experience, especially through crisis is invaluable in preparedness education. We are honored to present this special edition.
Just imagine in a threatening situation,
there were no strangers because everyone knew what to do and acted without hesitation. The world is complex and getting more complex seemingly by the minute. We designed this effort to help bring clarity, replace fear of the unknown with the confidence to learn and to adapt to any kind of environment.
Join us in PWPORG® to engage in defining and designing preparedness education for the future. The design and the narrative which will surround it will require active engagement, investment in preparedness and resilience education and talking to our kids in a developmentally appropriate way, not around them. Our investment now will earn value for generations to come if we get it right.
From A Child's Hand
There is no greater honor than showing respect for those who serve, especially when the gratitude comes from a child. PWPORG thanks the Washington DC Police Foundation and Operation Gratitude for supporting all of our selfless First Responders and their families.

Mission Statement
To empower parents and children to invest in their own safety and security through education and community engagement.
Our Vision
We envision a connected world in which there is a common understanding of and a shared responsibility and accountability for protecting kids from threats to their safety.
Safety and Education
PREPAREDNESS WITHOUT PARANOIA® is designed to provide an easy to navigate, commonsense resource for preparedness and resilience education for individuals, families and organizations. Active learning means actual engagement and personal involvement in acquiring new knowledge and reinforcing that knowledge through activity. We help make security awareness commonsense, and its practice, a lifelong skill as automatic as fastening a seatbelt.
Spreading the Word
Just imagine if in a threatening situation, there were no strangers because everyone knew what to do and acted without hesitation. The world is complex and getting more complex seemingly by the minute in the pandemic era, where everything we thought we knew has changed. We designed this effort to help bring clarity, replace fear of the unknown with the confidence to learn and to adapt to a new kind of environment where living rooms became classrooms.
Getting Involved
Join us in PWPORG® to engage in defining and designing what the new or next normal will be. The redesign and the narrative which will surround it will require active engagement, investment in preparedness and resilience education and talking to our kids in a developmentally appropriate way, not around them. Our investment now will have generations of return if we get it right.
