The Federal Emergency Relief Administration (FERA), established in 1933 during the Great Depression, was dissolved in 1935 and replaced by the Works Progress Administration (WPA). While FERA itself no longer exists, its legacy influenced the development of modern federal disaster relief programs and agencies, such as the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). These agencies continue to adapt and evolve in response to changing needs and challenges in disaster management and recovery.
