Iowa Resources
Iowa, do you know who to contact or how to get information when a disaster strikes?
Residents and visitors can rest assured that they will have those contacts at their fingertips. Social media and websites of the Governor, Emergency Management, Attorney General, Department of Transportation, Highway/State Patrol and Public Health offer a wealth of information before, during, and after a disaster. Local resources such as Fire Departments, Sheriff, Emergency Management, and Public Health will provide information locally.
All of these resources, plus so much more are invaluable before, during, and after ANY disaster.
