One of the best ways to train a group of
emergency responders and volunteers to work together is to
test them as a team facing a real life scenario on a tabletop
model. The Command
School, Inc., is facilitating the tabletops, a nationally
recognized developer and facilitator of ICS-based tabletop
exercises. Contact Jack Lynch at 301-663-5214 ext 4# for more

Corps, a national network of volunteers dedicated to making
sure their families, homes, and communities are safe from
terrorism, crime, and disasters of all kinds. Citizen Corps,
AmeriCorps, Senior Corps, and the Peace Corps are all part
of the President's USA
Freedom Corps, which promotes volunteerism and service
throughout the U.S.
