The response to Hurricane Katrina in 2005 was widely criticized for being inadequate and poorly coordinated. Federal, state, and local agencies faced significant challenges, including slow evacuation efforts and a lack of resources for affected communities. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) was particularly scrutinized for its delayed response and inability to provide timely assistance. While some improvements have been made in disaster preparedness since then, many argue that the lessons learned from Katrina have not been fully implemented in subsequent responses to disasters.
