A Message from the Agency Director

Emergencies occur daily. They include vehicle accidents, fire and rescue calls--at school, the workplace and in the home. Communications between law enforcement, firefighter, rescue, and public works agencies are critical in these emergency situations.

Disasters can deprive people of the basic necessities of life -- things like food, shelter, health or the ability to continue earning a living. In a matter of minutes disasters can devastate an entire community.

Much can, and must be done to prevent or reduce the impact of disasters. As outlined in our mission statement and in our vision for the future, the Sarpy County Emergency Management and Communication Agency works to reduce risks, strengthen support systems, and help people in our community prepare for and cope with disasters.
