From plausible risks
Identify the disturbances that affect your home and their concrete consequences: water, food, heat, displacement or communication.
Our purpose
Transforming information into action capacity.
PrépaCivile is a Francophone household preparedness platform. We help individuals and families build responsible autonomy, adapted to their daily lives and the risks of their territory.
A power outage, flood or interruption of services can disrupt a home. Knowing its needs, having some resources and agreeing on a plan helps to better address these disturbances.
Our course: Help you make proportionate decisions and then move forward in achievable steps. Housing, budget, health and family responsibilities are part of the starting point.
Our approach
Four principles to stay on course.
Choosing accessible measures
A simple plan, practiced skills and maintained reserves have a central place. Each step must be able to integrate into your habits.
Making room for self-help
Closeness, neighbours and vulnerable people are part of the preparation process, as well as increased autonomy to better support those around them.
Learning and Reviewing
A family situation changes, a reserve turns, an exercise reveals an oblivion. The preparation is built over time and adjusts with the experience.
Who is it for?
Preparation begins where you live.
You start, live alone, raise children or accompany a loved one? PrépaCivile offers points of departure that you can adapt, both in apartment and in house, in the city as well as in the region.
Our foundation is Quebec. Our content is also intended for readers from France, Belgium, Switzerland and other French-speaking territories. The climate, public services and local rules must always be taken into account.
We favour calm, understandable and usable information.The instructions of the competent authorities remain a priority during a real event.
