CERT - Community Emergency Response Team Basic Training

The Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) program educates volunteers about disaster preparedness for the hazards that may impact their area and trains them in basic disaster response skills such as fire safety, light search and rescue, team organization, and disaster medical operations. CERT offers a consistent, nationwide approach to volunteer training and organization that professional responders can rely on during disaster situations, which allows them to focus on more complex tasks. Through CERT, the capabilities to prepare for, respond to and recover from disasters are built and enhanced. We welcome individuals of all abilities.

In completing this course you will be given the opportunity to join one of the four CERT teams in the county (Youngsville, Bunn, or Lake Royale). You are not obligated to become a volunteer.
