Partners in Preparedness

What is the Partners in Preparedness program?

Partners in Preparedness brings trusted organizations, businesses and agencies together to serve as “EMbassadors” for Pinellas County Emergency Management. When you join as a partner, you agree to be a part of a movement to help our community become better prepared for disasters by spreading important preparedness and emergency messaging to residents across the county.

What are the benefits of the program?

  • An opportunity to position your organization as a leader making a positive impact in the community.
  • Communications tools that enable you to easily share vetted preparedness messages with your community in the form of social media posts, newsletter blurbs, graphics and more.
  • Support from Pinellas County Emergency Management with planning your own events and initiatives.
  • Access to training and educational resources.
  • Direct connection to local emergency management partners.
  • A website badge to publicly display your commitment to the community.

Who can be involved?

Any organized group, agency or organization serving Pinellas County that is interested in strengthening community preparedness is encouraged to sign up. Eligible participants include businesses, condominium and homeowners associations, faith-based organizations, nonprofit groups, cities and towns, and other community partners.
