The National Response Plan (NRP)

The National Response Plan (NRP) is a U.S. government framework designed to coordinate the response to disasters and emergencies, whether natural or man-made. It outlines how federal, state, local, and tribal authorities work together with non-governmental organizations and the private sector to deliver timely and effective aid. The NRP emphasizes collaboration, communication, and resource sharing to ensure a swift response and recovery, helping communities to manage crises more effectively. It serves as a guide for planning and executing emergency actions, ultimately aimed at protecting lives and property during significant incidents.
