Learn How FEMA Works
FEMA's mission is to help people before, during and after disasters. Here's what you can expect from FEMA in each stage.
About Our Process
This week, FEMA leaders participated in the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) annual Hurricane Awareness Tour in Maine, New York, Delaware, Virginia, South Carolina and Florida. Representatives from all levels of government joined community partners to showcase the coordinated approach to hurricane readiness and response, while urging the public to prepare now.
Last month, FEMA launched its annual #SummerReady Campaign with a series of virtual and in-person events on extreme heat and wildfires focused on understanding extreme heat, wildfire smoke impacts and defining actionable ways to combat and prepare for these increasing risks across the country.
FEMA is opening two Disaster Recovery Centers this Friday, May 10, in Douglas and Washington counties to provide one-on-one assistance for people affected by the April tornadoes.
