August is Emergency Management Awareness Month, a time dedicated to recognizing the important work of emergency managers who help keep communities safe before, during, and after disasters. These professionals play a critical role in preparing for emergencies, coordinating disaster responses, and supporting recovery efforts.

According to the International Association of Emergency Managers (IAEM), local and county emergency management teams work to ensure that residents are informed, protected, and supported in times of crisis. For more information about emergency management, visit IAEM’s website.
