Strategy 4ward is supporting a range of strategy, program design, and evaluation functions in conjunction with senior leaders from OHSEPR. Strategy 4ward is leading the development of capability guideline to be used by U.S. states for emergency mass repatriation of Americans. The guidelines will be used by state agencies and their public and private partner institutions to develop state-level capacity to support mass repatriation of Americans from overseas disasters and emergencies. These capabilities incorporate leading emergency management practices such as the National Incident Management System (NIMS) as well as specific services needed for emergency repatriation of U.S. citizens. The guidelines will be accompanied by a self-assessment model tool helping states to determine their current capacity to support mass repatriation incidents with OHSEPR.
