Emergency Management Agency (EMA)

An Emergency Management Agency (EMA) is a government organization responsible for preparing for, responding to, and recovering from emergencies and disasters, such as natural disasters, pandemics, or terrorist attacks. The EMA coordinates resources, plans evacuation procedures, educates the public about safety measures, and collaborates with local, state, and federal agencies to ensure community safety. Its goal is to minimize the impact of emergencies on people and property, ensuring a more effective response and quicker recovery.
