Mayor's Office of Emergency Preparedness

 
The Mayor's Office of Emergency Preparedness (MOEP) coordinates the City's homeland security and emergency management programs. MOEP's Mission is to enhance the City of Boston and Metro-Boston Homeland Security Region's capacity to prevent, protect against, respond to, and recover from major emergencies.

Working in close partnership with Boston's public safety and public health agencies, MOEP plans and prepares for emergencies, educates the public about preparedness, conducts training exercises and drills, and performs other services to support the City's overall preparedness. MOEP follows an all-hazards approach, preparing for emergencies of different types - whether they be natural or man-made.
