About Us
The U.S. Department of Education (ED)'s Office of Safe and Healthy Students' (OSHS) Center for School Preparedness provides support, resources, grants, and training to support emergency management efforts for local educational agencies (LEAs) and institutions of higher education (IHEs). For more information about emergency planning support available through the Center for School Preparedness, please visit ED's Emergency Planning Web site at: http://www.ed.gov/emergencyplan .
The REMS Technical Assistance Center (formerly Emergency Response and Crisis Management (ERCM) Technical Assistance (TA) Center) was established in October 2004 by the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Safe and Healthy Students (OSHS), formerly the Office of Safe and Drug-Free Schools (OSDFS).
The REMS Technical Assistance Center's primary goal is to support schools, school districts, and institutions of higher education in emergency management, including the development and implementation of comprehensive emergency and crisis response plans. The TA Center disseminates information about emergency management to help schools, school districts, and institutions of higher education learn more about developing, implementing, and evaluating crisis plans. In addition, the TA Center helps the OSHS coordinate technical assistance meetings, manage listservs for sharing emergency management planning information, and respond to direct requests for technical assistance.
