Emergency Preparedness

The Iowa Department of Public Health works with local, state and federal partners to increase the state's ability to respond to bioterrorism, infectious disease outbreaks and other public health emergencies.

We invite you to be a part of our preparedness effort. In this publication, you'll find information on how to make a plan for communicating with your loved ones and coordinating their actions if a public emergency occurs.
