Why come to CERT training?

Because CERT training will help you and your family be better prepared for disasters and other emergencies. You will also learn how to best help others. After a disaster, the professionals will be so overwhelmed that they may not be available for 72-96 hours or more. The rescue efforts will be up to us. You and others will want to help. CERT training teaches neighbors how to work together more effectively to save more lives and ease the hardship people go through until the professionals are able to get there.
