administration
- Lend the community your special
skills.
Why is it necessary for
me to register
pre-disaster?
Following many
disasters, large numbers of talented volunteers
show up to help, many of whom are turned away
because they are without the special skills and
safety training given pre-event to keep personnel
safe.
An effective response requires that
volunteers follow a pre-established protocol for
activation and follow the incident command
system.
My time is valuable. What
do I get in return?
- The satisfaction of giving back. Assist
local communities with essential services.
- Networking. Meet other members of the
community and experts in the field of public
health preparedness, attend training events, and
participate in yearly meetings.
- Receive cost-free training. Get prepared by
the best. For the sake of safety, one training
per year is required to remain an active
member.
- Volunteer. Want a one-of a kind experience?
Here's your chance to work behind the scenes at
major Boston events.
I’m ready.
How do I get involved?
- Complete the on-line application.
- Attend an orientation and then participate
in a refresher training per year to remain an
