"We hope that all communities along the gulf coast are prepared and wish their families and loved ones safe and well being during this hurricane season. ME911 is pleased to lend a helping hand and its disaster preparedness and emergency response services to aid in preparation and response," stated Clarence Wesley, CEO, ME911.
