Emergency Preparedness Overview

Making sure the public is safe and ready for an emergency is a priority of the Clinton County Health Department.  The Clinton County Health Department has an Emergency Preparedness Program and oversees the Emergency Public Health Preparedness activities, Cities Readiness Initiative and the Medical Reserve Corp.  The Program works closely with community partners to address and prepare for emergency preparedness.  There are over 150 volunteers who work with the program that contributed over 800 hours that equates to over $18,000 worth of time.
