About This Cause

In response to the national request for Americans to work together to strengthen our communities, Carnation and Duvall residents have established a nationally registered Citizen Corps Council to assist in the coordination and dissemination of local volunteer emergency response opportunities and information in the Carnation-Duvall area. The Carnation-Duvall area offers a broad range of opportunities for volunteer service. The goals of the Carnation-Duvall Citizen Corps Council are to stimulate interest at the grass roots level, to provide accurate information of available resources, to coordinate interests in order to avoid duplication, and to create funding, when required, for increased program growth. Citizen Corps councils such as the Carnation-Duvall Citizen Corps help drive local citizen participation by coordinating Citizen Corps programs, developing community action plans, assessing possible threats and identifying local resources. There are many ways to get involved in the Carnation-Duvall Citizen Corps Council. There are programs and activities already underway across America that focus on making communities safer, stronger, and better prepared. In addition to the national Citizen Corps programs, you might seek out other volunteer agencies and organizations that support the mission of Citizen Corps and are a good match with your skills and abilities. Or you can contact your local police department, fire department, and emergency medical services department to ask how you can get involved in citizen's programs they offer. Our programs include SnoVARC (Snoqualmie Valley Amateur Radio Club) for emergency communications, CERT (Community Emergency Response Team) training, Fire Corps and Firewise, Neighborhood Watch, and Medical Reserve Corps (CDMRC).
