In 2004 a group of Emergency Management Directors from municipalities throughout Connecticut met to discuss their concerns with the state of emergency response capability in Connecticut.
Their discussions led to the formation of the Connecticut Emergency Management Association (CEMA). Since those early meetings, CEMA continues to grow and our members are hard at work protecting more than 2 million Connecticut citizens.
CEMA's mission is to provide a forum for the emergency management community to foster cooperation, encourage communication, coordination, collaboration and program enhancement.
