Welcome!

I'm Heather McDermott, Director of the Adams County Office of Emergency Management.

My staff and I work on a daily basis with local, state and federal government entities to ensure that our county is prepared should disaster strike.

We hope that as you explore our website you will learn more about the local hazards we face and how to best prepare for a potential disaster.

Feel free to contact us if we can be of help!

All the best,

Adams County
Office of Emergency Management
