The Northampton County Office of Emergency Management is seeking community volunteers to join its Community Emergency Response Team. 

The team will give those who want to help following a disaster a chance to volunteer their services whether the event is a power outage, public health crisis or threatening weather.

This team’s objective is to help local emergency services in the event that they become overwhelmed following an event such as a natural disaster. 

Those interested in joining are encouraged to contact Interim Emergency Manager Tony Burnette via cell at 252-578-2495 or at the office at 252-574-0214.
