The Central
Coast C.E.R.T. Association (CCCA) was formed to provide Community Emergency Response Team (C.E.R.T.)
training and continued training for citizens and community
organizations of Monterey and surrounding counties. The CCCA provides
and supports the community with the skills they need to respond to
their immediate needs in the aftermath of a disaster or other
occurrences when emergency services are not immediately available.
We organize
and maintain the skill levels of CERT graduates. This is done by
attending and supporting ongoing emergency response training and
participating in CERT activities. The CCCA utilizes California State
Certified Instructors for optimal
training. Our goal is to achieve a high level of preparedness, and to
provide volunteer support to the Fire, EMS and Emergency management
teams when a major disaster strikes, or when activated.
In
addition to supporting the communities of the Monterey Peninsula, we
also currently facilitate training for citizens, community
organizations and agencies of the following Central Coast counties of
California:
Monterey County (including Monterey, Carmel, Carmel Valley, Big
Sur, Del Rey Oaks, Pacific Grove, Seaside, Marina, Castroville,
Salinas, Gonzales, Soledad, Greenfield and King City)
Santa Cruz County
(including Santa Cruz, Capitola, Scotts Valley and Watsonville)
San
Benito County (including Hollister and San Juan Bautista)
Santa Clara County (including San Jose, Santa Clara, Campbell,
Cupertino, Gilroy, Morgan Hill, Los Altos, Los Gatos, Milpitas,
Mountain View, Palo Alto, Saratoga and Sunnyvale)
