FEMA Launches the National Resource Hub to Unify Resource Management Nationwide

FEMA is pleased to announce the launch of the National Resource Hub to support the community in implementing the resource management preparedness process defined in the National Incident Management System (NIMS) and the National Qualification System (NQS). The National Resource Hub is a suite of web-based tools that support a consistent approach for resource management. It serves as a no-cost solution for all state, local, tribal, and territorial government agencies, non-governmental organizations, and other mission partners.

The National Resource Hub is available as part of FEMA’s Preparedness Toolkit (PrepToolkit) and represents the consolidation of the existing Resource Typing Library Tool and OneResponder, as well as the launch of a new centralized and cloud-hosted Resource Inventory System.
