About me:
-Message from the Unit Leader-
The Team returned to Mobile June 16, after serving in Arkansas for the a month and a half on Tornado, Flood and Severe Storm Relief. They completed many service projects which included, long term recovery, blue roofing, mucking and gutting, debris removal, and assembling Emergency Storage Units. ERT successfully completed their mission and are currently deployed to the Missouri Floods. They have each served close to and more than 1700 hours for the Southeastern Communities. This first year team has built a program that is ready to respond to any disaster at anytime. Now is the time to serve and they are a prime example! Semper Paratus - Always Ready!
Ethan Crowell
In 2004, the U.S. Government declared 68 major disasters in response to hurricanes, tornadoes, wildfires and flooding. In the past decade, there have been nearly 600 Federal disaster declarations, including natural disasters and terrorist attacks.
We understand that disasters are often compounded by a lack of community preparedness and a disorganization of valuable resources. Much of the devastation associated with disaster situations can be dramatically reduced through greater public awareness, organizational collaboration and effective community involvement. Our highly skilled, trained members are vital resources that address these important challenges.
ERT members focus on both critical life safety needs in a disaster and on meeting recovery needs. Members are on-call 24-7, and can be deployed for up to six weeks at a time.
ERT members are trained in safety and preparedness, as well as in CPR and First Aid.
