What is CERT? Local government prepares for everyday emergencies. However,
during a disaster, the number and scope of incidents can overwhelm conventional
emergency services. The Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) program trains
volunteers to assist in their neighborhood in an emergency situation.
Mountain Neighbor's Network, a program of Mountain Community Resources, is starting
up a SLV CERT training program this fall, and we need an advisory board, trainers,
and volunteer team leaders! The ideal candidates will be former volunteer or
paid firefighters, medics and or law enforcement personnel but anyone who is
interested is welcome to come.
Interested? Please Join Our Community Information Meeting
When: 7PM Wednesday, September 1,
Where: Felton Fire Station
131 Kirby Street in Felton.
