Mass Dispensing Area 31 Volunteer Website

Our volunteers are our greatest asset. In the case of a public health threat or emergency, we count on you to help in whatever way you can. But are YOU and your family prepared? Often we put off until tomorrow what we can do today. Perhaps your New Year’s resolution for 2008 should be to take time to plan for you and your loved ones in an emergency.

There are many great resources available to guide you as you plan. Check out these websites for guides and checklists you can use for free.
