SNS (Strategic National Stockpile) contains medical cache for public health emergencies.
It is comprised of two components:

  1. 12 Hour Push Package
  2. Managed Inventory

Depending on the public health emergency, when requested by the State, SNS assets can arrive within 6-12 hours of the federal decision to deploy.
If you would like additional information please contact the NDHHS HRL Section.

The Public Health Emergency Preparedness & Response Program is occasionally notified of funding opportunities available to agencies throughout North Dakota. Those opportunities will be posted here.
