Help Shape Racine County's Preparedness Priorities!

Racine County Emergency Management is working to identify our community's preparedness priorities for the next several years, and we want to hear from you!

The information collected through this survey will help inform the County's Integrated Preparedness Plan (IPP), which guides future emergency planning, training, exercises, public education, and other preparedness activities. Emergency preparedness isn't just the responsibility of first responders or government agencies—it takes the whole community. If you live or work in Racine County, please consider voicing your thoughts.

You do not need any special knowledge or emergency management experience to complete this survey. There are no right or wrong answers—we simply want to know what preparedness looks like from your perspective.

The survey should take 5-10 minutes to complete, and your feedback will be anonymous. The survey can be found here:

We had the pleasure of helping plan and support Exercise Yeti along with multiple other County agencies! This exercise helped our first responders train on what to do in the case of an open-air, active threat, multiple casualty incident. Trainings such as this go a long way to making our community more resilient and prepared 💪
