CERT (Community Emergency Response Team)
Part of the United States Citizen Corps Program, the Montclair State University CERT team was established in 2003. CERT members give critical support to first responders in emergencies, provide immediate assistance to victims, organize spontaneous volunteers at a disaster site, and collect disaster intelligence to support first responder efforts. Montclair State University is the first college in New Jersey to have such a program, and one of only four nationwide. http://www.montclair.edu/emergency
