What We Do

Operating under Wisconsin State Statute Chapter 323, Sauk County Emergency Management coordinates emergency response and recovery efforts in support of local governments. Through planning, training and exercising we prepare ourselves, our communities and response personnel to minimize the loss of lives and property. Click here to view Wisconsin State Statute Chapter 323

Emergency managers, firefighters, law enforcement officers, EMT/paramedics, and other emergency responders do an incredible job of keeping us safe, but they cannot do it alone. We all have a personal responsibility to be prepared.
