The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) provides the State of Michigan, through the Michigan State Police Emergency Management Division, funds through a performance grant for state and local programs. In order to continue to receive funds, Oakland County Emergency Management is required to maintain compliance with state and federal emergency management program requirements.
