Citizen Corps + disaster/prep volunteer groups

Not much is closer to my heart than being a volunteer firefighter. I did it for 14 years and my parents, specifically my father, always said you should try to leave your community a little better than you found it. And being a volunteer in emergency situations is a perfect way to not only be prepared, but to give of yourself to others.

WHAT IS CITIZEN CORPS?

Citizen Corps was created to help coordinate volunteer activities that make the nation’s communities safer, stronger, and better prepared to respond to any emergency situation. Citizen Corps is managed at local levels by Citizen Corps Councils, which bring together existing crime prevention, disaster preparedness, and public health response networks with the volunteer community and other groups.
