Safety


Iowa Wing Safety Program

The Civil Air Patrol is best known for its Emergency Services mission. The Civil Air Patrol provides air and ground search and rescue as well as disaster relief.  In providing all of these Missions for America CAP emphasizes safety in all that we do. CAP is increasingly using Operational Risk Management (ORM) to assess how we are performing our missions to make sure that we are doing everything as safely as possible.
