August 15, 2026 is Emergency Management Recognition Day

When disaster strikes, you can be sure there’s a team of dedicated emergency management professionals working around the clock to keep their communities safe. Before, during, and after disaster strikes, your local emergency management team is behind the scenes working to keep you and your loved ones safe. Local emergency management agencies are also a great place to find information and available resources in your community!

From mitigation and preparedness to response and recovery, these professionals are the backbone of community resilience. They bring local first responders, government agencies, and nonprofit agencies to the table to plan and train before disaster strikes. Keeping their communities safe and resilient is a top priority.

August is dedicated to recognizing and thanking the emergency managers from all 88 Ohio counties for their commitment, effort, and tireless work that often goes unseen.
