Are you a member of a Chatham County House of Worship or Faith-Based Organization? If so, you are invited to join the Chatham County Disaster Faith Network!

CEMA created the Disaster Faith Network (DFN) within Chatham County to serve as a coalition of Faith-Based organizations. The Chatham County DFN helps meet the immediate and long-term needs of our community when we have been affected by a disaster. The vital connections between Faith-Based organizations and CEMA helps foster a whole community relationship and enhances communication and coordination, emergency preparedness, and response and recovery operations. It is our hope that through this coalition, the Chatham County Disaster Faith Network will strive to make Chatham County a more disaster resilient community.

Workshop: Hurricane Preparedness Workshop and Exercise

Join CEMA's Disaster Faith Network for our August 2024 Workshop on Hurricane Preparedness. During this event, you will hear from experts at the National Weather Service on what you should know about the 2024 hurricane season. Then, we will conduct an interactive exercise where we will show a fictitious storm and spell out what you can expect from CEMA during a storm response and how your House of Worship can learn what is actually happening and how you can assist those that need it most! This session is Ideal for clergy, security personnel, and congregation leaders.
