Community Emergency Response Team

CERT stands for .... Community Emergency Response Team. "Looking around Whatcom County, the folks in the Kendall-Maple Falls-Glacier area are in an ideal location for CERT training. Why? Because in case of a major disaster, it is quite possible that you will be isolated from the rest of the county. It may be several days before outside resources can get there". * Quoted by Bob Jacobson, a VISTA volunteer working with the Whatcom County Emergency Manager's Office.
