MRC is made up of local volunteers who assist in preparing for and responding to public health emergencies. As an MRC member, you may also be called upon to help during the year with routine events in our community (e.g. Annual Flu Clinics, Health Fairs, Disaster Exercises, or Public Health Outreach). Local Corps are usually formed in conjunction with Police, Fire, and the Board of Health in each town. Community citizens without medical training are also encouraged to join and assist with administrative and other essential support functions.
