Community Emergency Response Team (CERT)

 

The CERT program provides training for you to learn about hazards and ways to prepare for them.  You will be able to organize yourself, your family, your neighborhood or your community until help arrives

 

In the 20 hour program, you will learn basic disaster response skills, such as:

§     preparing a 72 hour kit

§     creating a family plan

§     fire safety & effective use of a fire extinguisher

§     safely performing light search and rescue

§     organizing teams

§     disaster medical operations

 

The primary goal of the training is for you to be able to prepare your family & home or assist others following an event when professional responders are not immediately available to help.
