Overland Emergency Response Network - OERNet

Vision:
OERNet educates and organizes overlanders, off-roaders and good samaritans alike to give back to their community by drawing upon the wide range of skills and techniques as first aid, communications, route clearing, transportation and wilderness problem solving, all of which lend themselves to aiding first responders. Our focus will be to pool these individual skills into a team structure that is able to help first responders in an organized manner, in emergency situations and disasters.

Often times people are in a position to help, but may not know who to reach out to in order to maximize their talents to their fullest. At OERNet our mission is to organize the community by team members assets such as medical training, swift water training, etc and have a community of volunteers and members split by level of training which will draw upon skills learned from CERT, first aid and amatuer radio for those who wish to become a member. Though NO formal training will be required from volunteers, they will prove to be an invaluable resource from which we can draw from as we will be in touch with local authorities to see what resources they need and where those resources and volunteers will be needed. From there we can establish which individuals are able to help those groups and mobilize accordingly.
