Office of Emergency Services

The Office of Emergency Services (OES) is a government agency that coordinates disaster response and emergency management efforts. Its primary role is to prepare for, respond to, and recover from emergencies, such as natural disasters, public health crises, or other incidents affecting communities. OES works with local, state, and federal agencies to develop plans, provide training, and ensure resources are available when emergencies arise. They also help inform and educate the public on safety measures and preparedness strategies, aiming to protect lives and property during crises.
