Emergency Preparedness

The Town of Trumbull, Connecticut has made public safety and disaster preparedness its number one priority.

Emergency Management

The Office of Emergency Management plans for and prepares for emergencies - natural or man-made - that could affect Trumbull's citizens and facilitates a coordinated effort for preparedness, mitigation, response, and recovery from emergencies and disasters. This includes documenting plans and procedures, training personnel, acquiring equipment, as well as strategizing with other departments and agencies.

In the event of an actual emergency, the Director or his/her designee will mobilize and deploy personnel and resources, notify the public and press of the emergency and manage the emergency event to maximize resources and minimize any negative impact.
