The National Advisory Committee on Children and Disasters (NACCD) was established in 2014 under the Pandemic and All-Hazards Preparedness Reauthorization Act (PAHPRA) of 2013 to provide expert advice and consultation to the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response (ASPR) on the medical and public health needs of children before, during, and after a disaster or public health emergency. In the winter of 2016 the NACCD formed the Human Services Work Group (HSWG).
