WELCOME TO MONTANA DISASTER AND EMERGENCY SERVICES

Current Situation Report     Remington Fire Resources


Montana Disaster & Emergency Services (MT DES) is the lead agency coordinating
comprehensive emergency management in Montana.  In collaboration with local and
tribal governments we build, sustain, and improve our ability to prepare for,
protect against, respond to, recover from, and mitigate hazards. 

MT DES is organizationally situated within the Montana Department of Military
Affairs.  The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) of the Department of
Homeland Security (DHS) provides guidance and grant oversight.

We recognize that comprehensive emergency management requires strong
partnerships with public, private, and non-profit partners, as well as with
individual citizens.  Engaging the whole-community results in robust planning
intended to minimize the impact to our populations affected by disasters.

Division (DES) for the state of Montana.  She began her career at DES in 2015. 
During her time at DES, the state has faced multiple disasters ranging from the

She is an avid supporter of comprehensive emergency management with an emphasis
on disaster mitigation.

She previously managed the Public Health Emergency Preparedness (PHEP) program

committees.  She was awarded the Governor’s Award for Excellence in 2009.

Delila is from Libby, Montana and received a bachelor’s degree in Political
Science from Montana State University in Bozeman in 2001 where she also received
