Home » Community Action » Emergency Management » 2022-2026 FEMA Strategic Plan

 

The landscape and scope of emergency management is changing quickly. Ten years ago, FEMA managed an average of 108 disasters a year. Today they manage an average of 311 disasters plus the ongoing response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Goal 3: Promote and sustain a ready FEMA and prepared nation
