Today, we spent the day welcoming @CityofDenver employees into our Emergency Operations Center for tours. Our job at OEM is to help keep our city safe, prepared and resilient—but we can’t do it alone. It takes the knowledge, dedication and support of the incredible employees across our city and county who step up when our community needs them most. Emergency management is a team sport. We’re stronger, more prepared and more resilient because we do this together.
