What are the benefits of volunteering for the MRC?
• MRC volunteers are prepared to deploy, and are more likely to be utilized than unaffiliated volunteers because they are: • Pre-identified • Pre-credentialed • Pre-trained • Volunteers play a critical role in ensuring a rapid return to stability for their communities during a public health emergency • The MRC provides volunteers with opportunities to participate in continuing education on mass prophylaxis operations, and other emergency preparedness topics • Volunteers have automatic access to the NYC Health Alert Network (HAN) • Volunteers may gain personal satisfaction from knowing that you’re helping our city to become better prepared to handle health emergencies
