Response
The RESPONSE program was developed in 2002 to provide volunteer assistance with Homeland Security. This program was developed at the request of the federal government and initiated through a Program of National Significance grant through the Corporation for National and Community Service. The program’s goal is to heighten senior awareness and educate the public in “Preparedness for all Individuals and Communities.” We cannot control natural disasters, emergencies or unexpected attacks, but we can make plans to educate and protect our families and ourselves.

Volunteers are offered opportunities to serve within three Homeland Security initiatives: Disaster Preparedness Training, Personal Safety and Community Safety.
