Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Management
Jefferson County Homeland Security and Emergency Management works to prepare and protect the citizens of Jefferson County, including the municipalities, from the effects of natural and human-caused disasters by working towards the development of a Disaster Resistant Community.
Our mission is to reduce the loss of lives and property and protection of the environment from all types of hazards through a comprehensive emergency management program consisting of preparedness, response, recovery, and mitigation.
Congratulations to Cindy Boyle, one of the winners of the 2-person emergency preparedness kit, given away by the Jefferson County Local Emergency Planning Committee at the 2024 Jefferson County Fair.
