Abstract:
The Disaster Human Services Case Management (DHSCM) program is authorized through appropriations language under the Children and Families Services account. It is operated by OHSEPR, which is the lead in HHS for human service preparation for, response to, and recovery from, natural disasters. The wildfires that began August 8, 2023, have displaced thousands of residents. The state and county do not have existing internal capability to conduct disaster case management operations to support residents. OHSEPR’s previous OMB-approved collection for disaster case management operations was limited to FEMA’s Immediate Disaster Case Management program and the collection expired July 31, 2023. Absent approval of the new collection, OHSEPR and ACF would not be able to provide disaster human services case management services to disaster survivors in Hawai’i and other impacted jurisdictions.
Emergency Justfication:
The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) is requesting emergency review and approval of this information collection by OMB, as authorized under 44 U.S.C. 3507 (subsection j). The proposed forms are necessary to enable ACF’s Office of Human Services Emergency Preparedness and Response (OHSEPR) to provide case management support to residents of the state of Hawai’i that were impacted by wildfires beginning August 8, 2023. The wildfires have destroyed more than 3,000 homes and impacted nearly 9,000 residents in Maui County. The information collection is essential to the mission of the agency and is necessary to support vulnerable families. Emergency review and approval is necessary to prevent public harm that is reasonably likely to result if normal clearance procedures are followed as it would result in the initiation of disaster human services case management operations to support families that are currently displaced.
