FEMA for KIDS
Floods, wildfires, hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes and winter storms are natural disasters that happen in the United States. The Federal Emergency Management Agency -- FEMA -- helps people who have been in a disaster. We also teach people what to do during a disaster and what to do BEFORE a disaster. You can help your family prepare for a disaster. With this site, you can also learn about what causes disasters, play games and read stories from children who have been through a disaster. You can also become a Disaster Action Kid! Disasters are a serious subject, but you can have fun learning about them!
