FEMA is working with state, local, tribal and territorial partners to prepare for the potential impacts from storms in the Atlantic, Caribbean, and Pacific.

Successful response and recovery to disasters is a team effort. FEMA is not the only responder in the recovery of states and communities that have been devastated by disasters. We all need to be prepared. We need all levels of government to work together to transform our nation to have a true culture of preparedness.

When it comes to disaster response, the entire community has a role to play. See FEMA's "Disaster Response is a Team Effort" below to see how this works.
