Arlington, TX 76011
Staff Directory
The Emergency Preparedness Department was created by the region for the region, post 9-11. The department was originally focused on the metro/urban areas but then expanded to include all 16 counties. The Regional Emergency Preparedness Program is one of the largest and most effective programs of its kind in the United States. The program facilitates information sharing, collaboration, and cooperation between jurisdictions in a politically neutral and supportive environment. Through established working groups, regional list servs, and shared resources, the program brings together urban, suburban, and rural jurisdictions. The resulting planning, projects and programs help build both local and regional capabilities, and enhance the protection of our North Central Texas populations and critical infrastructure.
