For more than 40 years, IEM has been a trusted partner in disaster preparedness, response, recovery, and resilience. We help communities across the United States rebuild and thrive after disaster strikes. And here in Puerto Rico, our commitment runs deep.
With over 200 dedicated team members on the island, IEM is proud to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the people of Puerto Rico, working every day to ensure a fast, fair, and forward-looking recovery. We believe Puerto Ricans deserve nothing less than the same urgency, compassion, and world-class service that any U.S. citizen would receive on the mainland.
From hurricanes and earthquakes to pandemics and power outages, we have helped governments manage and maximize grants and disaster assistance, leveraging funding from federal, state, and local programs, as well as non-profit and private sector partners. But no matter how complex the challenge, one thing never changes: survivors always come first.
Whether coordinating life-saving air operations, delivering critical supplies, or supporting long-term housing solutions, IEM is on the ground and ready to restore normalcy, rebuild infrastructure, and reignite Puerto Rico’s vibrant economy and culture.
We know disasters are not a matter of if, but when. That’s why we turn lessons learned into lasting change. We transform recovery into resilience and planning into protection.
Together, we can prepare for whatever comes next and build a stronger Puerto Rico for generations to come.
SAFE. SECURE. RESILIENT.
