SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant to the Federal Advisory Committee 
Act of 1972 (5 U.S.C., Appendix, as amended), and Section 2811A of the 
Public Health Service (PHS) Act (42 U.S.C. 300hh-10a), as added by 
Section 103 of the Pandemic and All-Hazards Preparedness 
Reauthorization Act of 2013 (Pub. L. 113-5), the HHS Secretary, in 
consultation with the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Homeland 
Security, established the NACCD. The purpose of the NACCD is to provide 
advice and consultation to the HHS Secretary with respect to the 
medical and public health needs of children in relation to disasters.
    The NPRSB is authorized under Section 319M of the PHS Act (42 
U.S.C. 247d-7f), as added by Section 402 of the Pandemic and All-
Hazards Preparedness Act of 2006 and amended by Section 404 of the 
Pandemic and All-Hazards Preparedness Reauthorization Act, and by 
Section 222 of the PHS Act (42 U.S.C. 217a). The Board is governed by 
the Federal Advisory Committee Act (5 U.S.C. App.), which sets forth 
standards for the formation and use of advisory committees. The NPRSB 
provides expert advice and guidance on scientific, technical, and other 
matters of special interest to the Department regarding current and 
future chemical, biological, nuclear, and radiological agents, whether 
naturally occurring, accidental, or deliberate.
    Background: The June 26-28, 2018, public meetings of the NPRSB and 
the NACCD are dedicated to identifying key areas of analysis and 
recommendations for the NPRSB and the NACCD to advise the Assistant 
Secretary for Preparedness and Response (ASPR) and the HHS Secretary 
related to current key ASPR priorities of providing strong leadership 
in health response, advancing an innovative medical countermeasures 
enterprise, building regional disaster health response systems, and 
sustaining robust and reliable public health response capabilities. On 
June 26, the NPRSB will hold an inauguration for newly appointed Board 
members and formally thank Board members whose terms are ending for 
their service. There will also be a public meeting focused on 
enhancement of medical countermeasures, biodefense, and efforts to 
protect the U.S. from 21st century health threats. On June 27, the 
NPRSB and NACCD will hold a joint meeting focused on new and continuing 
collaborative work of the Advisory Committees. The focus will be on the 
Future Strategies Work Group joint effort to develop recommendations to 
best support successful achievement of the HHS and ASPR mission related 
to preparedness, response, and recovery from 21st century health 
threats. On June 28, the NACCD will hold a public meeting dedicated to 
the NACCD's continuing work to improve outcomes for children and youth 
in disasters and public health emergencies. The focus will be upon 
pediatric care systems within regional disaster health response systems 
and opportunities for capacity-building and leveraging existing 
strengths for pediatric surge capacity in large-scale emergency events. 
We will post modifications to the agenda on the NACCD and NPRSB meeting 
websites, which are located at https://www.phe.gov/naccd and https://www.phe.gov/nprsb.
