Dorchester County Community Emergency Response Team Needs Volunteers – Free Training.
DES is pleased to announce the dates of our next Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) training, scheduled to begin in January 2018. CERT is a great opportunity to learn basic disaster and emergency response skills to help yourself, your family, and your neighbors during a crisis. And, perhaps most importantly, this class is FREE! You do not have to be a resident of Dorchester County in order to take this course; it is open to residents and employees in the county.
Message from Cindy Smith: We need volunteers for the pet care section of the emergency evacuation shelter as well. I am the Pet Shelter Manager. We have one pet friendly shelter at CSD-HS but with more volunteers our north shelter can be one too. People can contact me if they want to volunteer. I would love for them to have this training before volunteering. Thanks so much!
