Medical Reserve Corps
The Anoka County Public Health and Environmental Services Department may need the support of volunteers during a public health emergency. The Medical Reserve Corps is a volunteer organization that utilizes the skills and abilities of all individuals. Volunteers will be needed to perform many different jobs depending on the emergency. Although some of these jobs will require a professional license such as a registered nurse, many of the job duties require no specific health training.
Anoka County is currently no longer accepting new MRC Volunteers. Please continue to check back periodically as this may change. Thank You.
