ENTERPRISE, Ala. (WDNews) — The Coffee County Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) is calling on residents to step up and register for its upcoming November training class — but as of today, no one has signed up.
CERT officials say the program can only move forward if at least 10 participants register in advance. The training equips everyday citizens with the skills needed to help their families, neighbors, and communities during emergencies or disasters.
“This training is critical,” organizers shared in a statement. “We need your help — get your family, friends, neighbors, church groups, and coworkers to sign up. Take no excuses! Preparedness saves lives.”
The three-day course will be held at the Enterprise Fire Department Central Fire Station, 301 Plaza Drive, on Friday, Nov. 14 (6–9 p.m.), Saturday, Nov. 15 (8 a.m.–4 p.m.), and Saturday, Nov. 22 (8 a.m.–1 p.m.). Participants must attend all three sessions for certification.
The $25 registration fee is tax-deductible, and the training covers essential disaster-response skills, including fire safety, light search and rescue, team organization, and disaster medical operations.
To register, call (334) 894-5375 or (334) 806-1994, email [email protected], or sign up online at coffeecounty.us.
