Alexandria Medical Reserve Corps

Alexandria Medical Reserve Corps In the wake of the September 11, 2001 attacks, thousands of Americans volunteered their skills and talents to assist the community.

The Alexandria Medical Reserve Corps (MRC) is a unit of local medical and non-medical volunteers who are ready to respond to public health emergencies and support public health emergency preparedness across Alexandria. Many more asked, “What can I do to help?” The Medical Reserve Corps (MRC) was established in 2002 as a national network of volunteers, organized locally to improve the health and sa

fety of their communities. The MRC network is made up of 987 community-based units and almost 200,000 volunteers located throughout the United States and its territories.
