To enhance national resiliency to a full range of disasters:
Quotes on the Institute's response to Hurricanes Gustav and Ike:
“Truly [the NIMSAT Institute's] efforts have laid a solid foundation for future response across all jurisdictional levels and fostered a critical partnership that will place both the State of Louisiana and the Nation in a greater position of future preparedness.”
-Mark Cooper, Director, Louisiana Governor's Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Management (GOHSEP)
“The Institute facilitated public-private partnerships that ensured that Louisiana had the necessary resources to manage the disasters, and conducted impact estimates that were instrumental in seeking congressional support. In addition, the NIMSAT team provided timely technical support to the State that ensured the successful management of the response to both hurricanes, with minimal loss of life and property.”
-Sen. Mary Landrieu, United States Senator
