About

The video showcases FEMA's National Response Coordination Center (NRCC) as the primary hub for interagency coordination during disasters. It ensures a coordinated response among FEMA headquarters, affected regions, and states/territories. The NRCC includes teams for situational awareness, gathering data on disaster impacts, and resource allocation. The infrastructure group collaborates with federal agencies for regulatory relief and resource allocation. Another focus is on maintaining a common message platform, including social media, for outreach and media coordination. The NRCC also provides a platform for live interviews and 24/7 access for FEMA officials and interagency partners to support pre-, during, and post-disaster operations.
