Our History

Our Members
In September of 2000, our founding members convened at the IEMA Conference in Springfield.
From that meeting, less than a dozen pros started the organization that still exists today. With the intention of strength in numbers and helping, our group has seen so many graduates and retirements.
But membership value remains!
