The Medical Reserve Corps was founded after the 2002 State of the Union Address, in which then President George W. Bush asked all Americans to volunteer in support of their country. The MRC is a specialized component under the USA Freedom Corps which promotes volunteerism and service throughout the nation. MRC units are community-based and function as a way to locally organize and utilize volunteers - medical professionals and others - who want to donate their time and expertise to promote healthy living throughout the year and to prepare for and respond to emergencies. MRC volunteers supplement existing local emergency and public health resources. MRC volunteers include medical and public health professional such a physicians, nurses, pharmacists, dentists, veterinarians, and epidemiologists. Other community members, such as interpreters, chaplains, office workers, retired law enforcement and legal advisors fill other vital positions. What Can MRC Volunteers Do?
