Preparedness - which is in charge of all emergency plans and training programs in the state.

Response - which is in charge of coordinating the state's response to any type of natural or man-made emergency through the State Emergency Operations Center.

MEMA Field Services/Area Coordinator Program:
MEMA has nine districts throughout the state with an area coordinator assigned to each district as a liaison between the county emergency operations centers and MEMA.
Emergency Public Information:
During an emergency, any crucial public information will be released through MEMA with the help of other state agencies that may be involved in the response actions. During any type of evacuation in the state, the Mississippi Public Broadcasting will broadcast that evacuation and traffic information on all MPB radio stations.
