In March, 12 new Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) members were sworn in and introduced to the community. The CERT group is a critical component of the St. Louis Park Fire Department’s community risk reduction strategy. Each of these resident members have been through training and background checks. They are looking forward to connecting within their neighborhoods in ways that promote safety and prevention.

With the new additions to the team, the fire department now has 22 CERT members. Their goal is to have 45 members.

If you or someone you know is interested, call the fire department at 952.924.2595.
