Specialty Response Teams
Capability Assessment Program
Clarity for Leaders. Confidence for Teams. Readiness for Communities.
Our nation’s emergency management framework is clear: disaster response begins and ends with the states and local communities. When incidents exceed local capabilities, specialty teams are the frontline assets that protect lives, stabilize communities, and set conditions for recovery. Building and sustaining those teams, however, is one of the most complex and costly responsibilities a state and communities can shoulder.
