Black Hawk County COAD brings together voluntary agencies, businesses, and governmental agencies to foster a more effective preparedness, response, and recovery to the people of Black Hawk County including the municipalities, as needed, in time of disaster. We accomplish this through:
- Cooperation (creating a climate of cooperation, information sharing, and meeting together)
- Coordination (encouraging a common understanding and providing a liaison with city-county government officials as well as resource management with the community)
- Communications (publishing and disseminating information)
- Preparedness (increasing mutual awareness and encouraging effective disaster relief policies and procedures).
Please contact the COAD Chair if you would like to connect your community organization to the COAD.
