Emergencies, disasters, hazards, and threats are a part of our work at the California Governor’s Office of Emergency Services (Cal OES). Preparing for, responding to, and helping Californians recover from them are a part of our DNA. Cal OES is proud to work with local, state, tribal and federal partners to help Californians get on the road to recovery after an emergency.
