CDC will contribute to national, state, and local efforts to prepare for and prevent public health disasters before they occur.
People in all communities will be protected from infectious, occupational, environmental, and terrorist threats.
When a disaster has occurred, CDC will be prepared to respond and support national, state, and local partners in responding in order to improve public health outcomes.
After response to a disaster has ended, CDC will assist national, state, and local partners in the recovery and restoration of public health functions.
