FEMA's National Preparedness Goal

FEMA's National Preparedness Goal is a framework that outlines the collective efforts needed to ensure communities are ready for various emergencies, such as natural disasters, cyberattacks, or terrorist threats. It sets a target for the nation to develop and maintain the capabilities required to prevent, respond to, and recover from such events. The goal emphasizes a unified, risk-based approach involving government agencies, organizations, and individuals working together to enhance resilience, reduce risks, and save lives during emergencies.
