 Welcome to the Emergency Management Association of Texas's (EMAT) new website! We’re pleased to have you visit this site and we trust that you will find our site a valuable tool and resource. We re-designed the EMAT website to further demonstrate our association’s foundation principle, which is reflected in the EMAT mission statement – “EMAT provides an opportunity for members to shape emergency management policy and practice in Texas.” Our new association identity reflects the words in our vision statement – “To be recognized as the statewide emergency management association of Texas”.
EMAT is excited about delivering distinctive, memorable and personalized member benefits. Our hope is that you create relationships, as opposed to minimal participation. The technology evolution has enabled us, through our new website, to reach out to every emergency management professional. Our website’s new robust content and functionality ensure that you will stay updated on our latest services, events and developments in emergency management.
While we are proud to introduce our new website, we aren’t stopping here! In coming months, you can expect to see more content and features. We encourage you to visit the site frequently to stay current on what is available and what is in store for the future.
We believe this new website is more professional, interactive, welcoming and informative than our previous site, to say nothing of its new look. The site is reflective of the EMAT fundamental belief that it is an honor and privilege to serve every emergency management person with whom we interact.
Sincerely,
Sharon Nalls, CEM
EMAT President

Changes Arrive
Hurricane season, June 1 - November 30, is almost upon us again. Most tropical storms occur during hurricane season, with the most activity concentrated in the months of August through October, but tropical storms can occur at any time. It is therefore best to get a jump start on the changes coming for the 2009 hurricane season. (click here)
