APHIS’ Veterinary Services (VS) program safeguards U.S. poultry and
livestock from the introduction, establishment and spread of foreign animal
diseases. VS’ National Center for Animal Health Emergency Management
develops strategies and policies for effective incident management, and coordinates
incident responses. The Center serves as a liaison with outside emergency management
groups, and ensures that VS emergency management policies, strategies, and
responses are current with national and international standards.
