The CERT program is designed to introduce County residents to introductory courses in basic first aid, triage, disaster preparedness, fire suppression, light search and rescue, & terrorism awareness. Neighbors helping neighbors is our goal. In the event of a disaster, as a CERT member you would be recognized as a volunteer under the direction of the EMC. In the event of an emergency, I trust that I may call upon you. Hopefully, we may never have to call you, except under more pleasant circumstances.

CERT classes are being offered between 6:30pm-9:30pm on the following dates. Pick a month!
