Maryland BEMA International Members

If you have a valid 501c3 entity with IRS tax letter you will find that the application processes nationally are being simplified for grant application submission.  Apply ASAP.

Also we highly recommend and advise that BEMA International be added as a subject matter expert for annual dues contribution, and not to rely on local emergency management resources to provide all training certifications which may be overwhelmed due to COVID-19 tempo.

Within BEMA International our private sector members and consultants can provide education & training, exercise engagement & coordination, and job development advise and recommendations to ensure your program is a success and fulfills community needs.

“We are now faced with the fact that tomorrow is today.  We are confronted with the fierce urgency of now.  In this unfolding conundrum of life and history there is such a thing as being too late.  Procrastination is still the thief of time.  Life often leaves us standing bare, naked and dejected with a lost opportunity.  This may well be mankind’s last chance to choose between chaos or community.” Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., ‘Where Are We Going From Here:  Chaos or Community’.
