Thanks for visiting the Mahaska County Office of Emergency Management and Homeland Security. This site contains information for citizens looking to be better prepared for emergencies and disasters, whether they are natural, manmade or technological. It is this department's belief that it isn't a matter of if, but a matter of when! Hopefully you will find this website useful and informational. If there is information that you would like to see added, please don't hesitate to contact us.

Please note that this site was made possible by donations from the sponsors listed on the pages. This is just one of the many projects Emergency Management is doing to increase the preparedness of Mahaska County. We are now in the process of starting a CERT group (more info) that would serve the citizens of the county and, if needed, other areas. If you are interested in giving a tax deductable donation to keep this and our other great projects going, please click the donation button below or contact the MCEMA office. Thank you!
