South Central York County EMA (with York County REACT) is looking for a few good CERTs! We need CERT trained individuals to join our South Central York County CERT Team. There are 1000+ trained CERTs in York County PA. However, we are seldom thought about and seldom used. We are building a demonstratable asset to serve the responder community through a NFPA1584 Fire Rehabilitation team. Your CERT training along with refreshers has not cost you anything. An additional CERT Fire Rehab course module will be presented. This is a serious volunteer opportunity. If you are a southern York County CERT looking to use your training and expand your volunteer time, get in touch with us.
