McHenry County Medical Reserve Corps

After the tragic events of September 11^th, thousands of citizens responded by volunteering to help in any way they could. To provide a framework for volunteers, President Bush launched the Medical Reserve Corps (MRC) in 2002. Medical Reserve Corps units contribute their skill and expertise throughout the year as well as during times of community need.

The McHenry County Medical Reserve Corps is an important part of the Health Department’s emergency preparedness and response strategy. MRC volunteers come from both medical and non-medical backgrounds and are pre-identified, trained, and credentialed. They help to fortify McHenry County’s ability to respond to terrorist activity, natural disasters, and emergency health events. MRC volunteers can also work to strengthen the overall health and well-being of the community by participating in McHenry County Department of Health activities throughout the year.
