Be trained to help your neighbor if disaster strikes.

The City's Fire Prevention division needs you to volunteer in the event of a CERTdisaster. A CERT (Community Emergency Response Team) class will begin Thursday, March 25. The training includes eight classes (two-three hours each on Thursday evenings) and culminates in a simulation exercise. The free training will take place at Fire Station #1 on Alsbury Boulevard and Fire Station #2 on Memorial Plaza.

You must be at least 18 years of age, be able to perform physical labor, and provide your own transportation. A CERT member's involvement during a disaster includes extinguishing small fires, providing disaster medical care, performing light search and rescue activities, providing rehabilitation and relief services and participating in communications.

The CERT program helps train people to be better prepared to respond to emergency situations in their communities. Cities across the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex and across the country have formed CERTs. When emergencies happen, these teams give critical support to first responders, provide immediate assistance to victims, and organize spontaneous volunteers at a disaster site. CERT members can also help with non-emergency projects that help improve the safety of the community.

For more information about the CERT program, contact Fire Marshal Stacy Singleton, 817-426-9174, or e-mail ssingleton@burlesontx.com. A CERT application can be obtained at Burleson City Hall and the Burleson Public Library, or you may download the PDF form from the City web site, www.burlesontx.com.
