HELPING IN TIMES OF NEED.
The mission of the Tarrant County MRC is to establish a network of volunteers who are willing to assist the residents of Tarrant County during times of emergency and other community needs.
To be most effective during emergency response, volunteers must be pre-registered, pre-trained and pre-credentialed in order to rapidly integrate into existing emergency response infrastructure.
The TCMRC provides the organizational structure needed for managing volunteer activities before, during and immediately following a large-scale emergency event.
TCMRC volunteers also provide assistance with non-emergency public health and other community events throughout Tarrant County.
