It is an all encompassing effort designed to bring together local leaders, individual volunteers, and the network of first responder organizations such as police departments, fire departments, and emergency medical personnel.
The 12 member MCCC serves as an advisory committee to the MCSC and provides direction on issues related to homeland security and the role volunteers can play in disaster preparedness.
The meeting is open to the public and the press is welcome to attend. Time will be allotted for public comment.
