SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Citizen
Corps was launched as a Presidential
Initiative, Executive Order 13254, in
2002 with a mission to harness the
power of every individual through
education, training, and volunteer
service to make communities safer,
stronger, and better prepared for the
threats of terrorism, crime, public health
issues, and disasters of all kinds. Citizen
Corps is FEMA’s grassroots strategy to
strengthen collaboration between
government and community leaders
from all sectors to engage the full
community in preparedness, planning,
mitigation, response, and recovery. The
Community Emergency Response Team
Program offers training that prepares
people to help themselves, their families
and their neighbors in the event of a
disaster in their community.
FEMA’s Individual and Community
Preparedness Division, which
administers Citizen Corps and the
Community Emergency Response Team
program nationally, would like to revise
its online information collection process

and forms by which local, tribal and
territorial Councils’ and Community
Emergency Response Teams submit
profiles via the national Web site. The
Citizen Corps Council registration form
will allow FEMA and State personnel to
ensure that prospective Councils/
CERT’s have the support of the
appropriate government officials in their
area, ensure a dedicated coordinator is
assigned to the Council, and will
provide an efficient way to track the
effectiveness of the nationwide network
of Councils and CERT’s. Approved
registration of a Council or Community
Emergency Response Team program
allows them to be recognized as official
entities; become eligible for Homeland
Security grant funding; allows for the
coordination of preparedness and
emergency management activities
among other groups associated with
Citizen Corps; promote their local
Councils to the public and become a
part of the Citizen Corps national
directory of Councils; and receive
important updates and messages from
the national office. The Citizen Corps
Council and Community Emergency
Response Team registries support the
mission of FEMA’s Individual and
Community Preparedness Division and
Citizen Corps, to help achieve greater
community resiliency nationwide. This
continuing registration process will
allow the Individual and Community
Preparedness Division to collect
information that is more usable and
provide a more efficient way to track the
effectiveness of the nationwide network
of Councils and CERT’s.
