Our MISSION
The Antelope Valley Community Emergency Response Team (AV CERT) program educates volunteers about disaster preparedness for the hazards that may impact our desert & rural communities. We train in basic disaster response skills, such as fire safety, light search and rescue, team organization, and disaster medical operations. We provide critical auxiliary support to emergency services personnel during emergencies & disasters while helping to increase the Antelope Valley's overall level of disaster readiness.
