Role of Your EMA: Civil Disorder
In the event of a major civil disorder incident, such as, a prison riot, major political protest, etc., the county and state Emergency Management Agencies are available to serve as a liaison to other assisting agencies.
The Allen County EMA works on an ongoing basis with local institutions to develop plans to coordinate assistance should a major incident occur at their facility. The local EMA, by statute, serves as the coordinating agency to procure state and federal assets to assist local communities in times of emergency.
