• Emergency management is the overall process of prevention, preparedness, response, recovery, and mitigation activities before, during and after disaster strikes.
  
  
• It includes planning, training, conducting emergency exercises, public education, and coordinating the development of all-hazard mitigation plans with local communities.
  
  
• When a disaster happens, emergency management helps organize resources and support recovery efforts.
