Disasters can affect our community in many ways. After the Rowlett tornado on December 26, 2015, Rockwall County OEM identified the need to have stronger plans in place to manage donations and volunteers and in turn provide these resources to citizens in need. The Office of Emergency Management invited leaders from local non-profit organizations, faith-based organizations, and chambers of commerce to assist us in creating these plans and identify how we can work together to be better prepared to assist survivors.
The resources listed below are provided to help individuals, families, and businesses become better prepared to meet their needs after a disaster. Rockwall County OEM encourages you to add these resources and their contact information to your family disaster plan.
