Fact Sheet for Florida
CDC’s Office of Public Health Preparedness and Response (PHPR) publishes an annual report to increase accountability regarding the nation’s investment in preparedness activities. This report, known as the National Snapshot, features national-level performance data as well as individual fact sheets for the 50 states, 4 cities, and 8 U.S. territories and freely associated states supported by the Public Health Emergency Preparedness (PHEP) cooperative agreement.
Regional Cooperation in Emergencies
In October 2016, Hurricane Matthew made landfall in Florida as a Category 2 storm. To assist in recovery, Florida used the Unified Planning Coalition, or UPC, a resource-sharing coalition among states in the southeastern region of the United States. After the storm, Florida was able to receive shelter support from nearby states days before what would have been possible without the UPC.
