Engagement

Note: If your town does not have a public contact method, please reach out to your town clerk and ask for the Emergency Management Director.

The Vermont Emergency Management Exercise Program provides first responders, volunteers, elected officials, emergency managers, private industry and others a chance to implement those skills necessary to protect lives and property during a simulated catastrophic event. This is accomplished by providing all-hazards exercises that examine the importance of prevention, protection, response, and recovery.

We are very excited to announce that the 2024 Vermont Emergency Preparedness Conference will be held September 10^th-11^th, 2024 in person at Lake Morey Resort with limited sessions available virtually.  Sessions will begin at 9:00am and the day will end by 4:15pm each day.  This conference is free to attend, with breakfast and lunch provided at no cost to all registered attendees.
