Iowa HSEM

This is the official YouTube channel for Iowa Homeland Security and Emergency Management. 

The Iowa Dept. of Homeland Security and Emergency Management (HSEM) has been working to make Iowa more prepared for disasters since it began as the State Civil Defense Agency in 1965. The focus of emergency management and the hazards faced by Iowans may have changed in some ways since that time, but what hasn’t changed is our commitment to making our state more prepared for any emergency or disaster.
