 | Helping our citizens learn how to be prepared for emergencies is a priority. The Ascension Parish Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness (AP OHSEP) has produced this all-hazards preparedness guide to generate public awareness and encourage you to develop your own readiness initiatives for your family. With the support of Ascension Parish President, Tommy Martinez and the Parish Council, we hope this guide will prepare you and your family to be self-sufficient following a major disaster.
Ascension Parish residents will find this all-hazards guide to be a convenient and useful resource for emergency awareness and preparedness information. | |

| Mission Statement The mission of the Ascension Parish Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness is to serve the citizens of the Parish through effective planning for natural and man-made disasters. Our goal is to save lives and to protect property through the coordination of an integrated emergency management system with all emergency response organizations, support services and volunteers. We will be an advocate for greater community efforts, including educating the general public to mitigate and prepare for potential emergencies. We will support efforts to train and exercise emergency responders in both the public and private sectors. We will manage and coordinate efforts toward a rapid recovery from disasters with an effective disaster assistance program. This office will be the point of distribution of Homeland Security information and intelligence to agencies throughout the parish. We are committed to effective actions designed to prevent some disasters and to reduce the impact of those over which we have no control. | |
