Minuteman Disaster Response (MDR) is a first-responder support team comprised of well-trained volunteers. Before disaster strikes, we forecast storms and prepare our teams for deployment. When the call comes to serve, our goal is to provide significant aid to disaster victims and supplement emergency personnel utilizing the FEMA Incident Command System. Our volunteers are trained in all areas of disaster relief, including Emergency Communications, Search & Rescue, First Aid, sUAS (drones), Flood and Swift Water Rescue, Heavy Equipment, Logistics & Resource Management.
