UMR Chapter youth members between the ages of 18-24 get trained on emergency preparedness and are equipped with resources to know what to do in the case of an emergency. They learn how to create emergency plans and emergency kits, and upon completion of their training get certified in UMR’s Emergency Preparedness Program, making them eligible to volunteer in a limited capacity for emergency response on behalf of UMR.

Each young person is given a pre-test to gauge their knowledge base as well as a post-test to once their training is complete.
