Join COAD

The Rogue Valley COAD consists of Jackson and Josephine County community organizations preparing, planning and training in order to coordinate with Emergency Management in response to local disasters. General Meetings for all Partners are held quarterly. The Steering Committee, which provides leadership over activities of the COAD program, meets monthly. Both meetings are held at ACCESS in the Oslrud Nutrition Center. Both are simultaneously in person and on Zoom for maximum convenience and participation.
