In order to be on the Call-out status you must complete your NIMS/ICS & Live Scan. As a call-out member of the Garden Grove CERT, you will have additional opportunities to assist first responders in an event of a disaster/emergency in our city as well as surrounding cities if we are activated. Garden Grove also provides hands-on training for 1st Aid, traffic/crowd control, and radio communication at various festivals throughout the year (Tet, Strawberry, etc..) We encourage you to attend and complete your requirements to become a call-out memeber.
