FEMA’s National Integration Center is seeking public feedback on the National Incident Management System (NIMS) Guideline for Mutual Aid. NIMS is a key component of the national incident management capabilities and enables organizations from across the nation to work together during incidents of all kinds and sizes. Implementing NIMS nationwide is a fundamental part of building our national preparedness.
