Community Lifelines Poster

Enhance your Incident Command Post (ICP) or Emergency Operations Center (EOC) with this high-visibility Community Lifelines Poster.

The Community Lifelines framework is a critical tool for incident stabilization, providing a standard way to characterize an incident and identify the status of essential services. This poster serves as a vital reference for incident management teams to quickly assess impacts and prioritize response efforts across the seven lifelines:

• Safety and Security: Law Enforcement/Security, Fire Service, Search and Rescue, Government Service, and Community Safety.
• Food, Water, Sheltering: Food/Water Supply Chains, Shelter, Agriculture, and Natural and Cultural Resources.
• Health and Medical: Medical Care, Public Health, Patient Movement, Medical Supply Chain, and Fatality Management.
• Energy: Power Grid and Fuel.
• Communications: Infrastructure, 911/Dispatch, Responder Communications, and Public Information.
• Transportation: Highway/Roadway, Mass Transit, Railway, Aviation, and Maritime.
• Hazardous Material: Facilities, HAZMAT Response, and Debris.

Product Specifications:

• Large Format: 36" x 48" for maximum visibility in meeting rooms or command trailers.
• Material: High-quality print on durable stock.
• Lamination Options: Available with professional lamination for use with dry-erase markers, allowing for real-time status updates during an incident.

Note: This poster is a high-quality print of the official framework developed by FEMA. While printed and distributed by EMSI to support the emergency management community, the graphic and framework are original works of the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
