The Panhandle’s Regional Emergency Preparedness Program is maintained in support of and in alignment
with state and federal preparedness strategies. It is an all-hazard program intended to prepare the
Panhandle to cope more effectively with all types of disasters, both man-caused and natural events.
Under this program plans are developed to affect a concerted regional response to large-scale disasters
and initiatives are undertaken to strengthen and equip regional response capabilities. The objective
of the program is to enhance the region’s ability to detect, deter and respond to disasters
with the overall goal of protecting the lives and property of Panhandle residents.
