Current Readiness Condition: 5 (Awareness)
Our members are DW Bayview residents, just like you, planning to organize into neighborhood teams. We are your neighbors, prepared to help you when an emergency occurs in our community. We are trained to provide emergency first aid after a disaster or hurricane.
See feature news story on Fox 13 News on how CERT helps during emergencies!
Hope for the best, prepare for the worst.
Even with all of today’s technology, hurricanes can take sudden turns. Take a few minutes today to check out the many resources linked here to better prepare yourself and your family should a disaster happen near you.
