The Administration for Children and Families Has Controls and Strategies To Mitigate Hurricane Preparedness and Response Risk

Our objectives were to identify the Administration for Children and Families (ACF's) potential risks for preparing for and responding to hurricanes and other natural disasters and to determine whether ACF has designed and implemented controls and strategies to mitigate these potential risks.

Within the 4 risk areas related to ACF's hurricane preparedness and response activities, we identified 15 sub-risk areas and rated 14 as low risk and 1 as moderate risk. Even though we rated one sub-risk area as moderate, ACF had developed various controls and strategies that are designed to mitigate the risks that we identified for preparing for and responding to hurricanes and other natural disasters.
