Vision
Resilience for all Communities
Mission
To promote resiliency through preparedness, response, and recovery by
incorporating best practices and sharing resources to empower trained
volunteers in our communities.
"The National CERT Association (NCA) will help emergency managers harness the power of volunteers before, during and after disasters. NCA will increase the awareness of CERT capabilities through communication, cooperation, and education. FEMA looks forward to partnering with the NCA to help build a culture of preparedness throughout the nation.
