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.

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

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.

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.

Page 8: Grant Expenditures on the Needs of Children in Disasters. · 2015. 10. 22. · requirements for grant recipients regarding the needs of children in disasters: Training should provide

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.

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

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.

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.

Page 13: Grant Expenditures on the Needs of Children in Disasters. · 2015. 10. 22. · requirements for grant recipients regarding the needs of children in disasters: Training should provide

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)

Page 14: Grant Expenditures on the Needs of Children in Disasters. · 2015. 10. 22. · requirements for grant recipients regarding the needs of children in disasters: Training should provide

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

Page 16: Grant Expenditures on the Needs of Children in Disasters. · 2015. 10. 22. · requirements for grant recipients regarding the needs of children in disasters: Training should provide

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

Page 17: Grant Expenditures on the Needs of Children in Disasters. · 2015. 10. 22. · requirements for grant recipients regarding the needs of children in disasters: Training should provide

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.

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.
