Emergency Management Websites
From Lt. Kamil Waters:
Social media is an essential part of daily life for many people...actually millions. In the emergency management space, social media serves as a critical source of information, and a vital tool for communication.
The purpose of providing these URLs is to provide you with situational awareness, appropriate engagement, and to help you build trust with credible stakeholders in the emergency management space.
I encourage you to create user profiles on these social media platforms. I also encourage you to sign up for alerts.
You have the opportunity to leverage social media to benefit your welfare, please do so. If you live outside of Mecklenburg County/the state of NC and have difficulty finding your county's information (police, fire, emergency management) let me know.
