Another group of Angelenos is officially trained, prepared, and ready to help their families, neighbors, and communities when disaster strikes.

Over the course of their CERT training, these graduates learned essential skills in disaster preparedness, fire safety, disaster medical operations, light search & rescue, team organization, and more.

A huge thank you to our instructors and everyone who helped make this class possible and congratulations to each graduate for making the commitment to become better prepared and more resilient.

πŸ‘ Welcome to the CERT family!

LAFD CERT, the Encino Neighborhood Council, and LAFD Battalion 10 teamed up to host a FREE CPR class at the Encino Community Center!

πŸ‘ 78 community members joined us to learn lifesaving CPR skills, with 53 participants taking the extra step to earn an optional 2 year AHA BLS certification at a deeply discounted rate.

A huge thank you to our outstanding instructors β€” Chief Robert Barna, Firefighter Jason Lawrence, and EMS Educator Anthony Keane for bringing their knowledge, humor, and real world experience into the classroom. Their stories and hands on instruction help make lifesaving skills practical, memorable, and approachable.

And a special shoutout to our incredible CERT volunteers who gave up part of their Saturday and braved the Valley heat to help make this training possible: Michelle A., Bob B., Brad B., Glenn D., Gary H., Jeff H., Cris Q., Martin R., Wade T., and Vincent W. πŸ‘

Thank you to everyone who came out to learn a skill that could one day save a life! β€οΈβ€πŸ©Ή
