| Abstract --- 
              This project is devoted to the analysis of individual disaster assistance 
              system for Taiwan government. This research, through survey research, 
              began with the systematic evaluation of the current individual disaster 
              assistance in Fire Administration, the Executive Yuan. Then the 
              authors, through depth-interview, collected the experience and documents 
              of disaster assistance system in the USA and Japan. Finally, an 
              institutionalized system of individual disaster assistance has been 
              recommended to protect the human life and property of the people 
              in disaster and property of the people in disaster areas. The research 
              strongly suggested that the Individual Disaster Assistance System 
              Act should be drafted as soon as possible in order to achieve the 
              efficiency, effectiveness and equity of disaster assistance system.
