The City of Milton-Fire Rescue Department recently launched a new emergency management program aimed at helping prepare residents in case of an emergency. The Milton community is invited to participate in the Ready Milton Community Emergency Response Team (CERT), a new citizen training program.

The Ready Milton CERT Program is based on a national training program developed by FEMA to educate citizens about disaster preparedness. The training prepares citizens to rely on each other when first responders who provide fire and medical services are unable to meet immediate needs. Course participants learn what to expect in terms of emergency services, individual responsibility for preparedness, and lifesaving skills.
