Emergency Preparedness and Response

The Emergency Preparedness (EP) program works to coordinate federal and state policies with planning efforts at the local level. Our EP Planner collaborates with partners in the community to coordinate resources and emergency response plans and activities to provide the best protection through preparation, response, and recovery operations for Santa Rosa County citizens from man-made and naturally occurring disasters.

Preparedness items have been permanently exempted from Florida sales tax.

Be Prepared

Every family should have an emergency plan in place and an emergency supply kit ready and stocked.

SAFER 

SAFER Santa Rosa County is a humanitarian association of independent organizations who may be active in all phases of disaster.

SAFER Santa Rosa is not a competing or exclusionary organization. SAFER Santa Rosa is intended to be a network for organizations active in disaster. Each SAFER member organization will maintain its own identity and independence while closely collaborating with other SAFER Santa Rosa member organizations.
