Abstract
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Strategic Plan 2018–2022 is a national cross-sectoral strategic plan of the United States of America. Its main goals are to build a culture of preparedness; ready the nation for catastrophic disasters; and reduce the complexity of FEMA.
More specifically, it aims to incentivize investments that reduce risk, including pre-disaster mitigation, and reduce disaster costs at all levels; close the insurance gap; help people prepare for disasters; better learn from past disasters, improve continuously, and innovate; organize the “best” (build, empower, sustain, and train) scalable and capable incident workforce; enhance intergovernmental coordination through FEMA integration teams; posture FEMA and the whole community to provide life-saving and life-sustaining commodities, equipment, and personnel from all available sources; improve continuity and resilient communications capabilities; streamline the disaster survivor and grantee experience; mature the national disaster recovery framework; develop innovative systems and business processes that enable FEMA’s employees to rapidly and effectively deliver the agency’s mission; strengthen grants management, increase transparency, and improve data analytics.
