Emergency planning activities should prepare facilities to prioritize the safety and well-being of youth and staff, keep families informed, continue operations, and reduce risk to the facility during and after an emergency.

For the purposes of this program, emergency is defined as an incident—natural, technological, or nonnatural—that requires a response to protect life and property.
