| Profile: |
Sedgwick County, KS, has further developed and enhanced its preparedness and response strategy. The MRC has demonstrated its ability to provide an organized way for medical, public health, and general volunteers to offer their skills and expertise during local crises and public health campaigns, such as the national Diabetes Detection Initiative and the potential reception of evacuees from Katrina. Corporate partnerships and collaborations with public and private organizations help ensure volunteer membership and completion of initiatives.
