Mission Statement

The mission of Fond du Lac County Emergency Management is to prepare for and minimize the effect of a disaster or the imminent threat of a disaster and to ensure restoration of critical systems and infrastructure after a disaster throughout the county.

Fond du Lac County Emergency Management works closely with the community leaders, local responders, other county departments, and community organizations to ensure coordination and communication before, during and after a disaster utilizing the four phases of emergency management: preparedness, response, recover, and mitigation.

Emergency Management is also responsible for developing and updating emergency plans for all hazards that may impact our county as well as work as a liaison between local, state and federal authorities before, during and after a disaster.

What we do

Emergency Management takes a whole community approach to the four phases of Emergency Management. We work with community partners, including Fire, EMS, Law Enforcement along with County and Municipal agencies as well as volunteer and community agencies to plan for, respond to and recover from disasters.  These efforts include conducting training, both classroom and scenario-based exercises to assess capabilities and existing plans.
