Kdun – Oregon Unveils Bold steps to fortify its emergency preparedness and resilience with the release of the 2025–2028 Homeland Security Strategy (HSS) by the Oregon Department of Emergency Management (OEM). This comprehensive plan outlines a forward-looking roadmap designed to protect communities, improve coordination among agencies, and address evolving threats ranging from natural disasters to cyberattacks.
The strategy represents a unified effort to enhance the state’s readiness through a whole-community approach. It builds on lessons learned from recent emergencies including wildfires, pandemics, and extreme weather events by placing greater emphasis on prevention, risk mitigation, and rapid response. According to OEM officials, the HSS will also serve as a critical tool to guide federal funding decisions, support public and private sector collaboration, and ensure equitable access to emergency services across Oregon.
At the heart of the new plan are four strategic goals: fostering a culture of preparedness, building resilient infrastructure, enhancing cybersecurity, and strengthening coordination among emergency management partners. Each objective includes actionable strategies aimed at building safer and more resilient communities throughout Oregon.

In particular, the HSS emphasizes innovation, such as integrating advanced technologies in emergency alerts and data-sharing systems, while promoting inclusivity through outreach to marginalized and historically underserved communities. “This plan ensures that no Oregonian is left behind when disaster strikes,” said OEM Director Erin McMahon. “We’re investing in partnerships and technologies that will save lives and reduce the long-term impacts of emergencies.”
Oregon Unveils Bold direction for the future, grounded in evidence-based strategies and stakeholder input gathered from across the state. Community leaders, local governments, tribal nations, and nonprofit organizations all played a vital role in shaping the 2025–2028 HSS, making it not only a government initiative but a collective vision.
OEM encourages residents to review the strategy and become active participants in Oregon’s emergency readiness efforts. Public engagement and collaboration are key components of success, especially as the state navigates increasingly complex security challenges.
As Oregon Unveils Bold commitments to public safety, the HSS stands as a testament to the state’s proactive approach to protecting its people and infrastructure in the years to come.
