  8. Nebraska Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) VISION: The Nebraska Emergency Management Agency will be a nationally recognized Agency that ensures that Nebraska is prepared to meet any disaster, hazard or emergency threatening our State. MISSION STATEMENT Our mission is to attain and maintain the principles of emergency management in providing the highest quality of support to the citizens of Nebraska. PHILOSOPHY Because every emergency occurs at the local level, local officials must be prepared to respond quickly and effectively, especially in the initial phase of a disaster before State government can provide supplemental assistance. NEMA will provide technical advice and support to assist local government in accomplishing these responsibilities.
