Emergency Management Agency

YCEMA

York County Emergency Management Agency (YCEMA) is a government agency located in Alfred, Maine. The mission of the agency is to lessen the effects of a disaster on the lives and property of residents, municipalities, and businesses of York County through coordination and training on the four phases of emergency management: preparedness, response, recovery, and mitigation.

In addition to its full-time staff, special teams, and cadre of several hundred volunteers, YCEMA works in conjunction with the Local Emergency Management Directors from all 29 towns in York County to act as a conduit between Maine Emergency Management Agency, Federal Emergency Management Agency, and other response partners. YCEMA protects the community by coordinating all activities and resources required to maintain and develop a comprehensive emergency management program.
