The Acton Emergency Management Agency (AEMA) consists of the following:  Communications/RACES (Ham Radio Operators), Auxiliary Fire Department, Rehabilitation/Support Services Team, Shelter Management and Explorer Post/Venture Crew 7 (BSA).  All members are expected to take First Aid and CPR to keep their training current.

In addition to emergency services, our members provide First Aid/CPR, communications and logistical support at many of our Town's celebrations including Patriots Day, Memorial Day, the Fourth of July, NARA events, Oktoberfest, and other events.

Throughout the year, different members have taken courses through the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency (MEMA) and the Red Cross.
