Second responders

You might not wear a uniform—but when something happens, you want to be ready.

You’re the kind of person who looks out for your neighbors, your family, and your community. You want to know what to do in an emergency. You want to be strong enough to help others, calm enough to lead when things go sideways, and prepared enough to act before first responders even arrive.

The Second Responder track is for civilians who take preparedness seriously—not just for themselves, but for the people around them. Whether you live in wildfire country, want to be a more resilient parent or neighbor, or are simply tired of feeling unprepared, this program is for you.

• Strength & fitness training for real-life emergency scenarios (carry, drag, sprint, lift)

• Home wildfire mitigation basics: defensible space, ember resistance, evacuation planning

• Evacuation readiness: go-bag planning, family drills, fire and weather alerts

• First aid & trauma basics: stop-the-bleed, CPR, communication

• Mental resilience & decision-making under stress

You don’t need a badge to protect your community.

You just need the training—and the willingness to lead.
