The Santa Fe County Office of Emergency Management is responsible for preparing our community for All-Hazard Preparedness and Response, which encompasses Natural, Technological, Human Caused Risks and Threats. We maintain partnerships with over 108 Agencies in the Santa Fe Area that include County Departments, private sector, faith based organizations, schools and volunteer organizations active in disaster response. Adjacent cities, counties and tribes complete this horizontal community. Vertically we work in partnership with the State, Federal and in some instances International organizations. The County Emergency Operations Center is one of several facilities ready to activate if needed. Mobile command units are routinely deployed to support first responders on more complex emergencies. A significant portion of our programs agenda is mandated by Presidential Policy Directives in Homeland Security and Emergency Management.
