Our Internet Presence

We utilize numerous digital communication channels and tools as part of our mission to provide information to the public before, during, and after a disaster. This page outlines all of our official communication channels and resources and why we use them.

Mobile Website - m.fema.gov

The mobile website allows the public to easily access preparedness and disaster-related information directly on their smartphone. The site also includes a registration form that the public can fill out to apply for disaster assistance after a Presidential declaration.

RSS/data feeds automatically provide the public with updated information as soon as it's available.
Widgets - www.fema.gov/help/widgets
Widgets provide information through web-based graphical interfaces. The public can place the widgets on their personal websites, allowing their visitors to see information that we provide.
Multimedia Library - www.fema.gov/medialibrary
