I. Legislative Requirement
This document was compiled pursuant to Senate Report 113-198 accompanying the
Department of Homeland Security Appropriations Act, 2015 (P. L. 114–4), enacted on
March 4, 2015, which directed FEMA to report on expenditures in all grant programs that
specifically address the needs of children in disasters, and benchmarks for meeting those
needs.
CHILDREN AND DISASTERS
The National Commission on Children and Disasters highlighted the unique
disaster-related needs of America’s 73 million children. The Committee
notes the progress that focusing on these unique needs has caused in recent
disaster response and recovery. The Committee directs FEMA to sustain its
ongoing efforts to address children’s disaster-related needs both in
headquarters and regional offices. Further, FEMA is directed to provide an
updated report, not later than 120 days after the date of enactment of this act,
on grant expenditures related to ensuring the needs of children are met,
including all sources of FEMA grants, such as preparedness and mitigation.
This Fiscal Year 2015 report on “Grant Expenditures on the Needs of Children in
Disasters,” is submitted to the Senate and House Committees on Appropriations in
fulfillment of this requirement, and to provide continuity in reporting for FEMA
preparedness grant expenditures.
2
II. Background
Children under the age of 18 comprise nearly 25 percent of the United States population
and have important and often complex planning and emergency response needs.
The National Commission on Children and Disasters (“the Commission”) was established
pursuant to the Kids in Disasters Well-being, Safety, and Health Act of 2007 as provided
in Division G, Title VI of the FY 2008 Consolidated Appropriations Act (P.L. 110-161).
Under the Act’s provisions, the Commission was instructed to conduct a comprehensive
study to examine and assess independently the needs of children (0-18 years of age) in
relation to the preparation for, response to, and recovery from all hazards, including
major disasters and emergencies, by building upon the evaluations of other entities and
avoiding unnecessary duplication by reviewing the findings, conclusions, and
recommendations of these entities. In its 2010 Report to the President and Congress, the
Commission reported specific findings, conclusions, and recommendations related to:
Child physical health, mental health, and trauma
Child care in all settings
Child welfare
Elementary and secondary education
Sheltering, temporary housing, and affordable housing
Transportation
Juvenile justice
Evacuation
The Commission also provided specific recommendations on the need for planning and
establishing a national resource center on children and disasters, and reported on the
coordination of resources and services, administrative actions, policies, regulations, and
legislative changes as the Commission considered appropriate.
Beginning in FY 2010, and in each subsequent fiscal year, the FEMA Grant Programs
Directorate, in coordination with the FEMA National Preparedness Directorate,
incorporated children-specific language into the Notices of Funding Opportunity (NOFO)
for several grant programs. For relevant FEMA preparedness grant programs, FEMA
encourages recipients to address some of the planning and preparedness
recommendations made by the Commission concerning the needs of children during
disasters. The relevant preparedness grant programs include:
Homeland Security Grant Program
o State Homeland Security Program
o Urban Area Security Initiative
3
Emergency Management Performance Grants
Nonprofit Security Grant Program
Tribal Homeland Security Grant Program
Intercity Passenger Rail
The NOFOs articulate the importance of addressing the needs of children affected by
disasters and promote inclusion of these issues in preparedness and response planning
across the Nation. The NOFOs do not prescribe a set amount or percentage of grant
funds that must be expended on the needs of children in disasters. Grant recipients are
given significant flexibility in how they expend grant funds so that they can address the
particular capability gaps identified in their specific jurisdictions.
4
III. Notices of Funding Opportunities Language
Addressing the Needs of Children in Disasters
The FY 2015 Homeland Security Grant Program (HSGP) Notice of Funding Opportunity
(NOFO) re-emphasizes the importance of creating or utilizing existing governing bodies
to act on this guidance and coordinate grant resources. Examples include state Senior
Advisory Committees, Urban Area Working Groups, statewide Interoperability
Governing Boards, county emergency management and fire departments, Area Maritime
Security Committees, Citizen Corps Councils or their equivalent, and Children’s
Working Groups. To ensure ongoing coordination efforts, State Administrative Agencies
are encouraged to share community preparedness information submitted in the state’s
Biannual Strategy Implementation Report with the State Citizen Corps Program Manager
or equivalent.
As part of the application process for State Homeland Security Program (SHSP) and
Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI) funds, applicants must develop a formal
investment justification (IJ) that addresses each investment proposed for funding. The IJ
must demonstrate how projects address gaps and deficiencies in delivering one or more
core capabilities outlined in the National Preparedness Goal and also must describe
engagement with and/or impacts on the general population, to include children and
individuals with disabilities, and those with access and functional needs. The IJ must
demonstrate the ability to provide enhancements consistent with the purpose of the
program and guidance provided by FEMA.
The FY 2015 HSGP NOFO identifies requirements for grant recipients regarding the
needs of children in disasters:
Each IJ must demonstrate how proposed investments engage and/or impact the
whole community, including children, older adults, pregnant women, individuals
with limited English proficiency, individuals with disabilities, and others with
access and functional needs.
Funds used to support whole community and individual preparedness related
efforts, such as engaging non-governmental organizations demonstrating the
integration of children and individuals with disabilities or access and functional
needs in all phases of emergency management, participation of disaster
volunteers, such as Community Emergency Response Teams (CERTs) in training,
exercises and response and recovery operations, and educating the public should
be coordinated with local CERT programs and/or Citizen Corps Councils.
Recipients must also integrate the needs of children and individuals with
disabilities and other with access and functional needs into activities implemented
with SHSP and UASI funds.
5
Mass Casualty Incident Preparedness and Citizen Preparedness recipients must
also demonstrate how their investments will increase the effectiveness of
emergency preparedness planning and response for the whole community by
integrating and coordinating activities including children, older adults, pregnant
women, and individuals with disabilities and others with access and functional
needs.
Any training or training gaps, including those for children, older adults, pregnant
women, and individuals with disabilities and others who also have or access and
functional needs, should be identified in the After Action Report/Improvement
Plan (AAR/IP) and addressed in the state or Urban Area training cycle.
The FY 2015 Emergency Management Performance Grants NOFO identifies
requirements for grant recipients regarding the needs of children in disasters:
Training should provide the opportunity to demonstrate and validate skills
learned, as well as to identify any gaps in these skills. Any training or training
gaps, including those for children and individuals with disabilities or access and
functional needs, should be identified in the AAR/IP and addressed in the training
cycle.
Exercises should provide the opportunity to demonstrate and validate skills
learned, as well as to identify any gaps in these skills. Any exercise or exercise
gaps, including those for children and individuals with disabilities or access and
functional needs, should be identified in the AAR/IP and addressed in the exercise
cycle.
With regard to exercises, costs associated with inclusive practices and the
provision of reasonable accommodations and modifications that facilitate full
access for children and adults with disabilities are allowable.
The FY 2015 Nonprofit Security Grant Program NOFO identifies requirements for grant
recipients regarding the needs of children in disasters:
Costs associated with inclusive practices and the provision of reasonable
accommodations and modifications to provide full access for children and adults
with disabilities are allowable.
The FY 2015 Tribal Homeland Security Grant Program NOFO identifies requirements
for grant recipients regarding the needs of children in disasters:
Tribes are encouraged to include disciplines responsible for the health, safety,
education, and care of infants and children and those responsible for integrating
the accessibility and functional needs of children and adults with disabilities.
6
The FY 2015 Intercity Passenger Rail NOFO identifies requirements for grant recipients
regarding the needs of children in disasters:
Training should provide the opportunity to demonstrate and validate skills
learned, as well as to identify any gaps in these skills. Any training or training
gaps, including those for children and individuals with disabilities or access and
functional needs, should be identified in the After Action Report/Improvement
Plan (AAR/IP) and addressed in the training cycle.
Any exercise or exercise gaps, including those for children and individuals with
disabilities or access and functional needs, should be identified in the AAR/IP and
addressed in the exercise cycle.
Costs associated with inclusive practices and the provision of reasonable
accommodations and modifications that facilitate full access for children and
adults with disabilities are allowable.

IV. FEMA Grant Funding Addressing the Needs of
Children in Disasters
PREPAREDNESS GRANTS
To determine Preparedness Grant funding specifically related to the needs of children in
disasters, FEMA reviewed the Biannual Strategy Implementation Reports (BSIR). The
BSIR is compiled twice each year with data reported by grant recipients directly to
FEMA. While the BSIR provides a comprehensive database of all grant expenditures,
the data is reliant on grant recipients to report the information accurately and
comprehensively to FEMA. Therefore, if the grant recipient does not report preparedness
expenditures as directly related to the needs of children, the BSIR may capture it in a
different category, even if the grant was used for child-related activities.
A complete list of expenditures for prevention, protection, and other preparedness
activities that directly impact children affected by disasters can be found in Appendix A -
Preparedness Grants BSIR Table. These data represent a compilation of BSIRs from the
period of Fiscal Years (FY) 2004–2014. It should be noted that preparedness grants
administered by the FEMA Grant Programs Directorate are awarded at the end of the
fiscal year, and therefore FY 2015 funds have not been awarded.
Further review of BSIRs from the period of FY 2004–2014 reveals that 27 states, the
District of Columbia, and one tribe have expended more than $17 million combined in
FEMA preparedness grant funding on prevention, protection, and other disaster-related
preparedness activities that directly impact children. The predominant activities funded
(rounded down to the nearest $0.5 million) include:
Physical security enhancements to facilities where large populations of children
are present:
o Children’s Hospitals: $1.5 million
o Childcare Centers: $2.1 million
o Schools: $1.5 million
o Other: $1.0 million
Community preparedness activities such as community outreach programs, the
Community Emergency Response Teams (CERT) Program, community
notification systems incorporating Amber Alerts, and identification card programs
for children: $6.0 million
8
Response and medical preparedness including pediatric medical surge capacity in
hospitals and accommodation of shelter facilities, and first responder equipment:
$3.5 million
Citizen Corps training and awareness: $0.5 million
RECOVERY GRANTS
Several FEMA recovery grant programs have had a direct impact on the recovery of
children and families from the effects of disasters. Recovery grant programs include the
IHP, Crisis Counseling Assistance and Training Program (CCATP), and Disaster Case
Management Program (DCMP). The National Commission on Children and Disasters
worked closely with these programs to raise awareness and better meet children’s
disaster-related needs.
Individual and Households Program
The IHP provides financial assistance and services to individuals and families residing in
a declared disaster area whose property has been damaged or destroyed and whose losses
are not covered by insurance. This assistance comes in the form of financial assistance
for repairing or replacing a home, temporary housing through rental assistance or a
government-provided housing unit, and other needs, including costs for medical, dental,
funeral needs, and personal property loss. This assistance is designed to help survivors
address the needs of their family and children as they recover from a disaster.
The Sandy Recovery Improvement Act of 2013 (P.L. 113-2) provided FEMA with specific
authority to allow childcare assistance under the other needs assistance provision of IHP
to assist survivors who apply for assistance (referred to as applicants) with disaster-
related childcare expenses. On January 22, 2014, FEMA released Policy RP9461.1,
Disaster Assistance for Child Care. This policy applies to all major disasters and
emergencies declared on or after January 17, 2014, and provides eligibility criteria and
parameters for awarding financial assistance to eligible applicants for disaster-related
childcare needs. Eligible childcare expenses include standard childcare service fees (i.e.,
the cost that is established in a contract between the childcare provider and the applicant)
as well as childcare registration fees and health inventory fees for survivors who require a
new childcare service provider.
In FY 2014, more than $143 million of IHP assistance was provided to disaster survivors.
Of that total, more than $60 million were to households with children. This represents 43
percent of all households having received IHP. More detailed information on funding for
IHP for FYs 2012–2014 can be found in Appendix B - Recovery Disaster Snapshots.
9
Crisis Counseling Assistance and Training Program
In FY 2014, CCATP provided close to $63 million in funding and served up to 80,000
individuals, including 9,000 children. Authorized under the Robert T. Stafford Disaster
Relief and Emergency Assistance Act, as amended (P.L. 93-288) (Stafford Act), the
CCATP requires a presidential declaration of disaster for individual assistance. The
CCATP is intended for short-term behavioral health support when disaster response
needs are beyond capacity.
This program is funded by FEMA and administered through an interagency federal
partnership between FEMA and Department of Health and Human Services (HHS)-
Substance and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) and consists of two
grant programs, the Immediate Services Program and the Regular Services Program.
CCATP uses a combination of mental health professionals and paraprofessionals, who
are trained and supervised to deliver an array of resources, including individual outreach
and group crisis counseling; basic supportive or educational contact; public education;
community networking and support; assessment, referral, and resource linkage; and
development and distribution of educational materials and media or public service
announcements.
To ensure that the needs of children are not overlooked, FEMA and/or SAMHSA
typically suggest to the respective applicants that they include a Child Coordinator(s)
and/or Children’s Specialist in their CCATP application request. The purpose of this
position is to ensure that the emotional/mental health needs of children are addressed
comprehensively, and in an efficient and effective manner. The CCATP has funded
Children’s Specialists to work with schools, childcare facilities, camps, youth groups,
etc., in affected communities to hold individual and group counseling sessions with
children to discuss reactions to disasters and to help mitigate the effects of the disaster on
their behavioral health. The program works with parents and teachers to help talk with,
and comfort, children that have survived a disaster.
The SAMHSA also provides tip sheets on talking with children, teachers, and parents
about disasters that are shared with program partners upon request at:
http://www.samhsa.gov/sites/default/files/tips-talking-to-children-after-traumatic-
event.pdf.
Disaster Case Management Program
In the event of a presidentially declared disaster that includes Individual Assistance, the
governor of the affected state may request the DCMP. In partnership with the affected
state, the DCMP enables a whole community approach through funding support to
voluntary, faith-based, and nonprofit organizations.
10
The DCMP is a Stafford Act funded program promoting:
Effective delivery of post-disaster case management services
Partner integration
Provider capacity building
State-level program development
The DCMP is designed to identify and assist with unmet needs of those affected by
disasters. Through Immediate Disaster Case Management (IDCM) or a State grant,
survivors are provided resources for case managers who will develop a recovery plan and
identify resources available for the identified unmet needs of families including those
with children.
The HHS Administration on Children and Families (ACF) assists with strategic
leveraging of resources from federal human services programs, including program
flexibilities and waivers; establishes human services liaisons to state, regional, and
national emergency operations centers; and advises on the needs of children and at-risk
individuals. Figures for children served through this program are not available.
MITIGATION GRANTS
Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP)
HMGP is authorized by Section 404 of the Stafford Act (42 U.S.C. § 5170c). The
purpose of HMGP is to ensure that the opportunity to take critical mitigation measures to
reduce the risk of loss of life and property from future disasters is not lost during the
reconstruction process following a disaster. HMGP is available, when authorized under a
presidentially declared major disaster, in the areas of the state requested by the governor.
Tribal governments also may submit a request for a major disaster declaration within
their affected areas. The amount of HMGP funding available to the applicant is based
upon the estimated total of federal assistance, subject to the sliding scale formula outlined
in 44 C.F.R. § 206.432(b). HMGP funds a variety of projects, including school safe
rooms like those built in Joplin, Missouri, in 2011.
Pre-Disaster Mitigation (PDM)
The PDM program is authorized by Section 203 of the Stafford Act (42 U.S.C. § 5133).
PDM is designed to assist states, territories, tribal governments, and local communities
to implement a sustained pre-disaster natural hazard mitigation program to reduce
overall risk to the population and structures from future hazard events, while also
reducing reliance on federal funding in future disasters.
Flood Mitigation Assistance (FMA)
11
The FMA program is authorized by Section 1366 of the National Flood Insurance Act of
1968, as amended (42 U.S.C. § 4104c), with the goal of reducing or eliminating claims
under the National Flood Insurance Program. The National Flood Insurance Fund
provides the funding for FMA. With recent change in legislation, the Repetitive Flood
Claims and Severe Repetitive Loss programs have been rolled into FMA.
The PDM and FMA programs are subject to the availability of appropriations funding, as
well as any program-specific directive or restriction made with respect to such funds.
Funding tables can be viewed in Appendix C - Mitigation Funding. FEMA Hazard
Mitigation Assistance currently does not collect specific metrics that would allow it to
determine if funded projects have a direct benefit on children. The data in Appendix C is
the result of a specialized query of keywords within project titles and descriptions.

V. Accomplishments
Below are specific activities to prepare for long-term needs of children. The
accomplishments listed below are current as of April 2015.
SCHOOL PREPAREDNESS
In June 2013, DHS/FEMA, the U.S. Department of Education (DoED), the
Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), and other Federal agencies published
updated Guides for Developing High-Quality Emergency Operations Plans for
Schools, Institutes of Higher Education, and Houses of Worship.
o The guides outline the principles of school/campus/house of worship
emergency management planning, provide a process for developing and
implementing emergency operations plans with community partners at the
building and campus levels, and discuss the function and content of these
emergency operation plans. The guides also consider key topics that
support school emergency planning, including addressing an active shooter
incident, school climate, psychological first aid, and information-sharing.
FEMA is consulting with the DoED’s Office of Safe and Healthy Students as it
creates and implements school-based training to build comprehensive all-hazards
plans. The DoED has implemented 19 trainings in school districts across the
country. A hybrid of this training is implemented by Save the Children to serve
childcare facilities.
America’s PrepareAthon!SM is a nationwide community-based campaign for action
to increase emergency preparedness and resilience through hazard-specific drills,
group discussions, and exercises. The campaign includes materials tailored to K-
12 schools to help them conduct preparedness discussions and conduct drills.
YOUTH PREPAREDNESS
As a significant segment of the United States population, America’s youth and
schools must be empowered to become active participants in community
preparedness. FEMA supports preparedness in communities through youth
engagement because:
o Children are positive influencers. Educators and social researchers agree
that children can bring the message of preparedness home to their families
effectively.
o Children can become leaders. By participating in youth preparedness
programs, children are empowered to become leaders at home and in their
schools and communities.
o Children who are prepared are more confident during emergencies and
disasters. Social science research and anecdotal evidence support the idea
13
that children who have learned about emergency preparedness experience
less anxiety during an actual emergency or disaster.
FEMA developed a robust Youth Preparedness Technical Assistance Center, to
encourage the creation of youth preparedness programs in various sectors, and
strengthen existing youth preparedness programs across the country. Highlights of
the efforts are:
o Built a clearinghouse of resources, tools, research, and relevant
announcements on Ready.gov/youth-preparedness under the “Start A
Program” tab.
o Hosted 28 regional and state “Youth Preparedness Implementation”
workshops (7,250 attendees).
o Created a suite of tools for practitioners: Implementation Guide,
Fundraising Guide, Risk Management Guide, Activity Workbook, Quick
Tips for Liability, and a Supplemental Implementation Checklist.
o Built an active direct technical assistance (TA) center with live service
providers. Between August 2012 and September 2013, 15 requests
for technical assistance were received and fulfilled. In FY 2014, the TA
Center had 148 interactions with individuals interested in youth
preparedness. In FY 2015, the TA Center reported 185 interactions.
o Provided printed materials available for a myriad of programs – Student
Tools for Emergency Planning (STEP), Teen CERT, Coloring Books,
Monthly Children & Disasters Newsletters, Spanish-translated materials,
and a program catalogue.
o Pursued research in the arenas of youth behavior campaigns, youth
behavior trends, successful program modeling for school-based programs,
and the impact of youth preparedness programming on overall national
resiliency.
Currently working with FEMA Corps to refine the school-based program, “Ready,
Steady, Strong” which was developed by teams working in New Jersey during
Hurricane Sandy. The program brings FEMA Corps members into high schools to
present information to students on disaster preparedness. The goal is to have this
program available for future disasters.
FEMA developed the National Youth Preparedness Council (YPC), a competitive
member-based youth council, to elevate the voice of children in all phases of
disaster. The 15 YPC members represent their generation by providing input into
FEMA’s youth initiatives and programs. The council also leads projects to
enhance youth preparedness in schools, social media, and communities nation-
wide.
FEMA authored, along with the American Red Cross and the DoED, the National
Strategy for Youth Preparedness Education: Empowering, Educating and Building
Resilience. The strategy aligns government and nongovernment partners
committed to and institutionalizing youth preparedness into their portfolio of
offerings. Along with other partnership development strategies, FEMA has
14
currently engaged more than 50 key partners to affirm the strategy and to build a
comprehensive report on the state of youth preparedness nationwide.
YOUTH IN RECOVERY
In partnership with the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children
(NCMEC), FEMA launched the Unaccompanied Minors Registry (UMR)
https://umr.missingkids.com/. The UMR is the first nationwide repository to
support the ability to collect, store, report, and act on information related to
children separated as a result of a disaster, and to assist in the expeditious
reunification of children with their parents or legal guardians.
FEMA began building a partnership with the NCMEC in 2006 as a result of
Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, and in response to the Post-Katrina Emergency
Management Reform Act of 2006 (PKEMRA) (P.L. 109-295). More specifically,
PKEMRA mandated that the Administrator, in coordination with the Attorney
General of the United States, establish within the NCMEC the National
Emergency Child Locator Center (NECLC). The Administrator also was directed
to establish procedures to make all relevant information available to the NECLC in
a timely manner to facilitate the expeditious identification and reunification of
children with their families.
In April 2011, FEMA and the NCMEC executed a formal agreement allowing
FEMA to reimburse, with no cost share, the NCMEC for the deployment of
personnel to a presidentially declared disaster to assist law enforcement with the
reunification of displaced children.
FEMA and the NCMEC co-led the development of the “Post-Disaster
Reunification of Children: A Nationwide Approach.” This document reflects the
first attempt to establish a national framework and whole community approach for
reunifying children separated from their parents or legal guardians in the aftermath
of a disaster http://nationalmasscarestrategy.org/reunification/.
FEMA established and staffed the Child Coordination Office, leading FEMA’s
efforts to address children’s disaster-related needs in response to Hurricane Sandy
in partnership with federal, state, local, and nongovernmental organizations.
15
VI. Conclusion
FEMA preparedness, recovery, and mitigation grants provide funding to prepare
communities to care for the needs of children throughout all phases of disasters. These
grant funds increase the ability of state, tribal, territorial, local governments, and
nonprofit organizations to protect citizens against threats and hazards while focusing on
the needs of children.
Over the years, FEMA grants have funded a wide range of investments to support the
needs of children during disasters. Preparedness grants have been used by hospitals to
procure child-sized medical equipment for mass-casualty events, equip large childcare
facilities to store and maintain emergency shelter equipment and supplies for children,
and fund multijurisdictional training and exercises to prepare for large-scale disasters
with emphasis on how to respond to the needs of children. Recovery funding through
programs like the Individual and Households Program provides critical support to child
survivors and addresses their immediate needs resulting from disasters. Mitigation
projects aid in the recovery of the whole community by providing funding to build safe
rooms, retrofit schools for earthquake stabilization, and install shutters on school
windows to protect children during storms, and other hazardous situations. FEMA will
continue to ensure that the needs of children in disasters continue to be addressed across
the spectrum of preparedness, recovery, and mitigation grant programs.

and recovery efforts. In addition, creating a culture of preparedness through youth initiatives
will strengthen the public's capabilities to prepare for, respond to, and recover from
emergencies and disasters of all kinds for generations to come, resulting in exponential
generational impacts. This project will allow for COG staffing to coordinate and support
Citizen Corps initiatives in the region.
