8. PPD-8 Overview The National Preparedness System outlines an organized process for everyone in the whole community to move forward with their preparedness activities and achieve the National Preparedness Goal. • Identifying and Assessing Risk • Estimating Capability Requirements • Building and Sustaining Capabilities • Planning to Deliver Capabilities • Validating Capabilities • Reviewing and Updating National Preparedness System Learn more online: http://www.fema.gov/ppd8 Send us e-mail: PPD8-Engagement@fema.dhs.gov

10. Threat and Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment THIRA is a common risk-assessment process that: • Helps whole community members identify and understand likely vulnerabilities. Simply put, you need to understand your risks in order to manage them • Reduces duplication of efforts by building on risk assessment efforts already in place The THIRA process is covered in Comprehensive Preparedness Guide 201: Threat and Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment, which was released in April 2012. What is THIRA? • Ways to Apply a THIRA • Preparedness efforts that can also be enhanced by a THIRA include: • Hazard mitigation plans • Emergency operations plans • Strategic planning for prioritizing assets • Equipment purchases and personnel hiring • Public awareness campaigns • Exercises • Training Learn more online: http://www.fema.gov/ppd8 Send us e-mail: PPD8-Engagement@fema.dhs.gov

11. Identify the threats and hazards of concern: Identify the emergency situations that could happen in your community. Give the threats and hazards context: Describe how a threat or hazard could happen in your community, and when and where it could happen.  Examine the core capabilities using the threats and hazards: Determine how each threat or hazard could affect the core capabilities designed to accomplish the National Preparedness Goal. Set capability targets: Using the information defined in the first three steps, set the level of capability a community needs to prevent, protect against, mitigate, respond to, and recover from its risks. Apply the results: Use the capability targets to decide how to use resources from the whole community.

12. PPD-8 Overview The THIRA process represents a neighbor helping neighbor way of thinking about resources. Communities and jurisdictions should look to the whole community as a resource for filling gaps in core capabilities. Whole community members are encouraged to: • Work together and share their assessment findings • Determine whether they have common core capabilities and capability targets • Pool resources to build and improve the core capabilities needed to address common risks If the resources do not exist in the whole community to build or improve core capabilities, then jurisdictions could consider grants. Neighbor Helping Neighbor is Key for Identifying Resources Learn moreonline: http://www.fema.gov/ppd8 Send us e-mail: PPD8-Engagement@fema.dhs.gov

14. PPD-8 Overview There will be five National Planning Frameworks: • Prevention, Protection, Mitigation, and Response are under White House review now. • The National Disaster Recovery Framework was released in September 2011. Each Framework: • Identifies the scope (guiding principles, scope of mission area, application of risk) • Summarizes the roles and responsibilities of each part of the whole community • Defines the mission area’s core capabilities, along with examples of key activities • Defines the coordinating structures – either new or existing – that enable the effective delivery of the core capabilities • Describes the relationships to other mission areas • Identifies relevant planning assumptions required to inform the development of interagency operational plans and department level plans • Provides information that state, local, tribal, and territorial governments and private sector partners can use to develop or revise their plans • Leverages concepts from existing national doctrine where possible (such as the National Incident Management System) National Planning Frameworks Learn more online: http://www.fema.gov/ppd8 Send us e-mail: PPD8-Engagement@fema.dhs.gov

15. PPD-8 Overview The Federal Interagency Operational Plans are being developed to guide the execution of each of the five frameworks. These Federally focused plans are intended to: • Be a more detailed concept of operations • Integrate and synchronize national-level Federal capabilities to support the plans at all levels of government • Describe critical tasks and responsibilities to include resource, personnel and sourcing requirements • Provide specific provisions for the rapid integration of resources and personnel • Be consistent with Comprehensive Preparedness Guide (CPG) 101 They are due to the White House on September 25, 2012.
