What is Emergency Preparedness?
Emergency Preparedness includes all activities such as plans, procedures, and exercises, undertaken in anticipation of a likely emergency.

The goal of these preparedness activities is to make sure that the county and state are ready and able to respond quickly and effectively in the event of a disaster or an emergency.

Disasters and emergencies can happen anywhere, at any time, and usually when you least expect them. Are you and your loved ones prepared?

If you were caught in the middle of a natural disaster, today, like a wildfire, snowstorm, winter freeze, earthquake, or flood, would you have the most essential supplies to help you survive? Or what if you were out on an adventure and an accident happened, would you have the right gear on hand?
