Our mission
Prepared for whatever may come
We provide assistance and support to local communities, organizations, and regional agencies in the event of an emergency. This is accomplished through education and training of the public and our personnel. Our primary goal is to minimize the loss of life or injury and protect property in the event of a man-made or natural disaster. We hope to achieve this through planning, preparing, response and recovery efforts.
Do you have an emergency kit prepared for your home and auto?
Severe weather
Storm Shelters
FEMA storm shelters are located at the following schools in Newton County. Storm shelters will be opened at the time a tornado or severe thunderstorm warning is issued by the National Weather Service. Please consider that you may not have time to reach a shelter so it is important to have a plan to shelter in place. We encourage all families to have a weather radio and emergency plans in place for any weather event whether you are home, your workplace, church, or are traveling.
