What is the Community Emergency Response Team (CERT)?

The Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) is a free program that educates community members about disaster preparedness for hazards that could affect their area and trains them in basic response skills - including fire safety, search and rescue, and medical operations.

The CERT program is managed by the Ventura County Fire Department, who runs trainings sessions each year throughout the county.

The OVME community has it's own CERT Team made up of residents who have volunteered to assist officials in the event of an emergency that affects our community.
