Growing up in Sumner County, Chris Johnson had his sights set far beyond Tennessee.

Our current team development efforts are focused on strengthening specialized capabilities across the state. These include Land Search Teams, All-Hazards Incident Management Teams, Emergency Management Support Teams, Urban Search & Rescue Teams, Swiftwater Rescue Teams, and Technical Rescue Teams.  A significant part of all efforts is creating a truly collaborative, statewide, all-hazards environment that ensures we have the right resources in place to support Tennesseans when they need  it.

TEMA proudly recognizes Logistics Administrator Jordan Howard for serving as a judge and panelist at Eastern Kentucky University’s Homeland Security Research Showcase. A graduate of EKU, Jordan returned to her alma mater to support student researchers and share her professional experience.
