National Mass Care Feeding Strategy
Feeding
This Template provides suggested guidance and procedures for a jurisdiction to consider in the development of a multi-agency feeding plan and a coordinating group (the Feeding Task Force (FTF)) that supports feeding assistance in advance of, during and after a disaster throughout the impact area(s) of the State.
Household Food Distribution in a Disaster
This guidance document assists jurisdictions in the development of a procedure for household disaster feeding. This Guidance Document outlines procedures for the acquisition, assembly and distribution of food items for household distribution in a disaster within the context of a Multi-Agency Feeding Task Force (FTF). The focus stresses coordination and collaboration by the various stakeholders during preparedness, response and recovery.
National Mass Care Strategy Background
Background:
- The American Red Cross and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) signed a Memorandum of Agreement on October 22, 2010 that describes how FEMA and the Red Cross will work together as co-leaders of the mass care portion of Emergency Support Function #6 (ESF-6) of the National Response Framework (NRF).
- FEMA and the Red Cross will now share the leadership of the mass care portion of ESF-6 to include feeding, sheltering, bulk distribution and family reunification. This partnership will enhance collaboration between voluntary organizations and government response partners by bringing together the resourcing strengths of FEMA and the mass care expertise of the Red Cross. As co-leads, FEMA and the Red Cross will work together to help government agencies and community organizations plan, coordinate and provide a breadth of mass care services for people affected by disasters.
- The MOA calls for FEMA, the Red Cross and National VOAD to strengthen response capacity by developing and promulgating a National Mass Care Strategy.
