As an auxiliarist you should be for the reason that it's not a matter of if a hazard, emergency, or disaster withll strike but when.

Will you be semper paratus?

On November 25, 2002, President George Bush signed the Homeland Security Act, which called for the largest reorganization in the U.S. government since the formation of the Department of Defense.  The reorganization plan will bring together twenty-two agencies or parts of agencies from other departments such as Justice, Commerce, Health and Human Services, etc., under the control of the Department of Homeland Security.  One of those agencies affected is the United States Coast Guard, which will be transferred from the Department of Transportation.

The Incident Management and Preparedness Directorate assists the Coast Guard by establishing  processes for selecting, notifying, and deploying Auxiliarists for joint activities with the Coast Guard.  We also provide a means of sharing data, offering training, communicating through sectors, evaluating events, creating contingency plans, and elevating preparedness.
