Stickney Township Medical Reserve Corps

After September 11th and Hurricane Katrina, America witnessed the devastation a disaster can cause to our fellow Americans. People everywhere asked, “What can I do?” and “How can I help?”
A major emergency may quickly overwhelm our responders. The first response to any disaster is local response. Volunteers may be called upon to assist emergency workers during an emergency or disaster.
Stickney Public Health District has formed a Medical Reserve Corp (MRC) for Stickney Township. The Stickney Township MRC is intended to enhance Stickney Township’s emergency preparedness and public health response capabilities by organizing and training volunteers to assist our communities during emergencies and in public health initiatives.
This year we encourage you to make the commitment to help your community when it needs you most. Let’s prepare today for what we may face tomorrow.
