Federal Emergency Management Administration

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) - a 2,500-person agency supplemented by over 5,000 stand-by disaster reservists - has a mission to provide leadership and support, reduce the loss of life and property, and protect the nation from all types of hazards. FEMA provides preparedness and response and recovery support to the nation and, through Project Impact, provides leadership in preventing and reducing risk before disaster strikes.
