County Response to Hurricane Helene
In response to Hurricane Helene, several counties deployed teams to heavily impacted areas to provide relief to residents, government entities, and local agencies. The following Emergency Management Agencies (EMAs) participated: Baldwin County EMA, Cullman County EMA, Jackson County EMA, Lee County EMA, Marshall County EMA, and Mobile County EMA. Additionally, members of the County Family who provided Telecommunicator Emergency Response Taskforce services included: Madison County Sheriff’s Office, and Shelby County 9-1-1. As these dedicated employees return from assisting our neighbors during the historic impact of Hurricane Helene, we express our pride in our County Family members and our gratitude for their safe return.
