Don’t Be Scared, Be Prepared
In Mississippi, a disaster can strike at any time of the year. It is important for every Mississippian, especially those with disabilities and other functional needs, to have an emergency plan.
The Mississippi Emergency Management Agency has several resources and information specifically tailored for people with disabilities and functional needs. Our goal is to empower individuals and their families to prepare for emergencies. We encourage you to review the information in this section to make a preparedness plan.
We are always preparing for tomorrow’s disasters today!
