Federal
Emergency Management Agency
www.fema.gov
DISASTER. It strikes anytime, anywhere. It takes many
forms -- a hurricane, an earthquake, a tornado, a flood,
a fire or a hazardous spill, an act of nature or an
act of terrorism. It builds over days or weeks, or hits
suddenly, without warning. The Federal Emergency
Management Agency -- FEMA -- is an independent agency
of the federal government, reporting to the President.
The Courtyard feels gracious
to have Mike McCormick from FEMA visits the Courtyard
to talk about what we can do regarding the recent tragic
fire incident across Southern California.
