Emergency Preparedness

Clemson University Cooperative Extension Service (CUCES) primary responsibility is educating the public about specific emergencies both before, during and after an event.

However with advent of terrorism, the CUCES is one of the lead agencies in defending South Carolina against agroterrorism. This is being accomplished by providing training to emergency preparedness agencies, farm producers, processors, inspectors, veterinary services, extension service agents and other first responders.
