Disaster Preparedness Guide for Caregivers


On Feb. 16, FEMA partnered with the Rosalynn Carter Institute for Caregivers (RCI) to launch the Disaster Preparedness Guide for Caregivers. Caregivers face unique challenges in preparing themselves, their support networks and their care recipients for disasters. This critical resource supports the estimated 53 million caregivers in the United States in their efforts to prepare themselves, their support networks and their care recipients.

The guide builds upon the insights outlined in the recently released Disaster Preparedness Guide for Older Adults and offers unique considerations for caregivers no matter their circumstances.

If you know someone who could benefit from the guide, share this important resource with them to help build a more resilient nation.
