Get involved in the TRI-CITY CERT ASSOCIATION.
CERT members, here are 2 teams we are developing and need active participants.
1) CERT COMMUNITY OUTREACH TEAM: help with disaster preparedness activities and staff CERT booths at community events.
2) TRI-CITY CERT DISASTER RESPONSE TEAM: You can be part of a CERT response team that can be deployed by a city agency in a disaster. We need CERT members who would like to help their community when a disaster happens. Special training provided.
If you are interested in either of these teams, please contact Cindy Matsuda at tricitycert@gmail.com
