This section of the site features information about FEMA's Region I, which serves Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Vermont

FEMA Region I works closely with state, local and tribal emergency management partners in New England to prepare for, protect against, respond to and recover from all hazards.

We work with the Whole Community to reduce the impact of natural disasters, and to prepare communities, families and individuals for all possible hazards. We continually update our plans to ensure that we are truly ready for all manner of disastrous events. We also support our state, local and tribal partners with grants for projects that reduce risks, improve public safety, and protect the environment.
