Welcome!

Finally a preparedness meetup for the North Alabama, South Central Tennessee, Northwest Georgia, and Northeast Mississippi areas! Basically anyone in about a 2 hour drive of Huntsville, AL.

We host bimonthly meetings for the purpose of meeting other preparedness-minded people with a view toward helping each other in dark times. There is more going on besides the meetings, but the meetings are your first step.

These are free public meetings. All preparedness-minded people are welcome from any state or location. This is a networking opportunity to help you find other like-minded people in your area for the purpose of building trusted relationships and arrangements to help each other in dangerous times.

Please attend if you can! And if you know other preparedness-minded folks in the North Alabama, South Central Tennessee, Northwest Georgia, or Northeast Mississippi areas, please let them know about these meetups!

Please email narpnet@protonmail.com if you have any questions. Privacy and anonymity are highly valued.


NOTE: The NARPNet meetings will now be held EVERY OTHER MONTH at least during the summer. The next meeting will be in APRIL, but we are still negotiating with the library on the exact date.

NOTE: Although our meetings are held at the public library, Huntsville-Madison County Public Library does not sponsor the program in any way.
