Learn about our missions, the Medical Reserve Corps (MRC), Fire Corps, and Community Emergency Response Team (CERT). If you do not want to do this online, we can do an in person training. 

The Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) program educates volunteers about disaster preparedness for the hazards that may occur where you live.

CERT trains volunteers in basic disaster response skills, such as:

• Fire safety

• Light search and rescue

• Team organization

• Disaster medical operations

​

The CERT program offers a consistent, nationwide approach to volunteer training and organization that professional responders can rely on during disaster situations, allowing them to focus on more complex tasks.

The purpose of the courses in the First Aid/CPR/AED program is to help participants recognize and respond appropriately to cardiac, breathing and first aid emergencies to know to give immediate care to a suddenly injured or ill person until more advanced medical personnel arrive and take over.
