Call to Action:Help Tell the Story of Emergency Management

IAEM-USA is excited to partner with Kirk Jackson of Going Home Pictures to produce a dynamic, high-quality video series showcasing the extraordinary value emergency managers and their programs bring to communities and organizations nationwide. This effort will tell our profession’s story.

In a time when budgets are tight and the future of key programs faces growing uncertainty, it’s more important than ever to highlight the critical role our profession plays before, during, and after disasters. Emergency managers have served as the linchpin for their communities – coordinating across disciplines, leading with integrity, and driving preparedness, response, recovery, and mitigation efforts that save lives and strengthen resilience.

Casting Call Opportunity 

IAEM is seeking emergency managers interested in participating in this initiative. They aim to focus on geographic diversity and representation of rural, suburban, and urban programs across IAEM regions. 

Selection priority will be given to IAEM members, but non-members can be nominated by members for consideration. 

All footage will be captured by the end of June and may be featured in the upcoming National EM Awareness Month campaign and future IAEM publications. Sensitive content will be managed with care. A standard media release will be required prior to any filming. 

Submit your interest or nominate a participant by completing this interest form

You can submit any existing photos, videos, or any questions to CommunityMemberEngagement@iaem.com

Free Webinar: Government Emergency Telecommunications Services (GETS) and Wireless Priority Service (WPS)

APRIL 30th 1400 EST/0800 HST

Join the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) as we close out Emergency Communications Month with an educational webinar! This webinar will provide information about CISA’s Priority Telecommunications Services (PTS) including how and when to use the services, how you can subscribe, and how PTS can support critical infrastructure during the 2026 World Cup tournament. Connect your call when it matters most with CISA’s PTS!

Register here: https://cisa.webex.com/weblink/register/r463c8ceea53e5bd0b00d9a93a42b922c

This April is Emergency Communications Month, and CISA is encouraging critical infrastructure owners and operators to strengthen their communications resilience and emergency preparedness by enrolling in CISA’s PTS. 

Government Emergency Telecommunications Services (GETS) and Wireless Priority Service (WPS) are offered at no charge, require no special equipment, and can work separately or together to achieve a call completion rate greater than 90%­—even during emergencies. WPS prioritizes calls when cellular networks are degraded or congested. GETS prioritizes calls when landline networks are degraded or congested, and they can be made from phones worldwide. 

The two services can be used together on mobile phones in one convenient app, the PTS Dialer, which can be programmed to easily make a priority call in just a few taps. 

To begin the enrollment process, visit https://www.cisa.gov/apply-pcs, and join us on April 30th for an informational webinar where we’ll walk you through everything you need to know about GETs and WPS; including how to get your organization started. 

No matter what vital industry you represent, adding PTS to your emergency communications plan is one of the easiest ways to ensure seamless communications when they are needed most.

All are invited to participate. To join on Wednesday, April 30, 2025 at 2:00 PM ET, use:
