Short Statement: This new collection of surveys replaces unexpired collection Federal Emergency Management Agency Individual Assistance Survivor Centric Customer Satisfaction Survey 1660-0129. The survey, which expires 2/28/2018, will be replaced with this new collection. Upon approval of this new collection, the current collection will be discontinued. The Customer Survey & Analysis Section (CSA), as part of Reporting & Analytics Division of the Recovery Directorate, will assist FEMA’s Individual Assistance Program by providing disaster survivor survey responses to use in measuring its ability to be accessible, simple, timely and effective in meeting the needs of survivors. These measures are used to insure the following: • FEMA's staff are responsive in addressing survivor's needs and provide caring customer service. • Information and guidance is available through electronic resources. • FEMA's dissemination of information and staff communication is clear and understandable for the survivors. • FEMA provides assistance in an appropriate amount of time that is not detrimental to the indicators above. • FEMA's assistance meets the need of the survivor to complete each program's intended mission.
