"Cities and counties across the country . . . create
Citizen Corps Councils of their own design, bringing together first
responders, volunteer organizations, law enforcement agencies, and
community-serving institutions, such as schools, hospitals, and
houses of worship. Some Citizen Corps Councils will feature local
activities that reflect new and existing national programs such as
Neighborhood Watch, Community Emergency Response Teams, Volunteers
in Police Service, and the Medical Reserve Corps. Some will include
local programs that involve partnerships with law enforcement
agencies, hospitals, first responders, and schools. What all
Citizen Corps Councils will have in common is that our local
leaders will be working to expand opportunities for their community
members to engage in volunteer service that will support emergency
preparation, prevention, and response."
-President George W. Bush
