FEMA’s Hazard Mitigation Assistance (HMA) Division is now accepting applications to join the HMA External Stakeholder Working Group (ESWG). To be considered for a January 2021 membership term start date, complete an Expression of Interest form by July 10, 2020.

The ESWG is a collaborative working group established in 2016 with the purpose of increasing engagement and transparency with non-federal partners in hazard mitigation, including states, local communities and jurisdictions, tribes and territories (SLTT).

The ESWG provides a venue in which federal partners and external stakeholders can openly communicate, share insight and feedback on mitigation and/or program issues, and increase transparency and understanding in regards to HMA program development and priorities.

To be considered for a position on the ESWG, please download and complete the HMA External Stakeholder Working Group Info.

Applications are accepted on a rolling basis, however, to be considered for the 2021 – 2023 term, please submit the completed form to FEMA-HMA-ESWG@fema.dhs.gov by July 10, 2020.
