Welcome
The mission of the Snohomish County Medical Reserve Corps (MRC) is to allow local volunteer medical, and non-medical professionals to contribute their skills and expertise throughout the year as well as during times of community need. Our Medical Reserve Corps unit is made of volunteers who can assist our community during emergencies, such as natural disasters, unintentional or intentional manmade disasters.
Medical Reserve Corps (MRC) is a community-based volunteer program sponsored by the Snohomish County Health Department that strengthens and expands the local public health system's response during a health emergency or disaster. Members include medical and non-medical professionals who contribute their unique skills and expertise to prepare for and respond to health emergencies.
The Snohomish County MRC was one of the first Washington state units, established in 2003. We are one of nearly 1,000 nationally recognized units and is part of Washington Region 1 which serves Snohomish, Skagit, Whatcom, San Juan and Island counties.
Members of Snohomish County MRC have assisted in a range of health emergencies that include response to the SR 530 flooding and slide near Oso, H1N1 influenza pandemic, COVID-19 pandemic response, sheltering operations, drills, exercises, and trainings.
