Navy Requirements After a Disaster

Week of June 11, 2007

There are two things Navy families should do immediately following a declared disaster -- muster with their command and complete a needs assessment with the Navy Family Accountability and Assessment System (NFAAS) at www.NavyFamily.navy.mil. NFAAS is used in conjunction with the BUPERS online (BOL) disaster muster tool (DMT). Personnel mustered through BOL DMT may go directly to the NFAAS website. Family members will need their sponsor's Social Security number and date of birth to access the website. If Internet and transportation are not available, personnel and families in the affected area may contact the Emergency Call Center at 877-414-5358 (the TDD number is 866-297-1971) to assess their needs.
