From deadly hurricanes to catastrophic flooding and massive wildfires, 2017 was a notable year for disasters across the United States and its territories. Through it all, and as designed, CERT teams have stood strong in aiding and assisting these hard hit areas.

The 2018 National CERT Conference in Naples, FL honors these efforts and offers you the opportunity to network and train with and learn from those who experienced these disasters first-hand.  Hear the lessons learned from the CERT program managers, instructors and volunteers having gone through the 2017 disasters. In addition, it takes place in Naples, Florida, location for Hurricane Irma’s second landfall in Florida after crossing the Florida Keys on September 10, 2017.  The 2018 National CERT Conference is presented by the Florida CERT Association in partnership with Volunteer Florida. Learn more about the conference.
