Are you thinking of becoming a Volunteer?  We are looking for individuals who are interested in joining the Medical Reserve Corps (MRC) to support their town, region, state, or even beyond.  The MRC is made up of volunteers who assist in preparing for and responding to public health emergencies. The MRC may also be called upon to help during the year with routine events in the community (e.g. Annual Flu Clinic, Health Fair, or Public Health Outreach). Local Corps are formed in conjuction with Police, Fire, and the Board of Health in each town. United States citizenship is not required to be part of the MRC, and any community member can assist with administrative and other essential support functions, even without medical training.
