It is our mission to not only prepare for disaster, but also assist the citizens of Franklin County in a rapid recovery from the emergencies that affect our lives. Take time today to prepare yourself, and your family, for what could happen tomorrow.

The Franklin County Emergency Management Agency promotes a regional all-hazards concept of disaster management and planning. Our mission is to establish, and maintain, a coordinated response system involving local, state, and federal authorities, community organizations, and the business community, to aid in the management of disasters and large scale incidents in the County Of Franklin, Illinois. 

 

Franklin County's Emergency Management Program was established by Director Ryan M. Buckingham in October of 2005. The Emergency Management Program is managed by the use of the five phases of emergency management. Prevention, Preparedness, Mitigation, Response, & Recovery are the phases that serve as the foundation of our program. Before the Franklin County Emergency Management Agency was established, Civil Defense, and the Emergency Services & Disaster Agency served as the coordination agencies for Franklin County in times of disaster.
