Why Should You Help?

• People volunteer for many reasons.  It’s a way to offer your skills at those times when, in the past, you’ve had to stand by because you weren’t adequately prepared to be part of the response effort.
• It’s a significant benefit to your community because skilled volunteers offer services throughout the year to augment existing public health efforts.
• It’s a chance to belong to a group with a strong sense of mission and purpose.
• Volunteers qualify for special incentives and training.
• Specialized training will be provided. Continued training sessions will be designed to address local needs and the needs and experience of the MRC team members.
• Continuing Education Units (CEUs) may be available for some or all of the training.
