MRCIL is an educational organization that brings together over 5000 volunteers serving in statewide MRC units ~60 county regional to coordinate and train medical and public health volunteers in emergency response disaster readiness and deployment of resources when needed to help keep our communities safe and better prepared for emergencies.

Monthly virtual trainings were held for all units and those volunteers who missed can access the training through our website. The Illinois MRC State Operations Plan was completed to ensure consistency in response and risk. MRC 101 Training for coordinators is transferrable where we train the trainer to return to their unit to deliver locally. Outside expert trainers provided sessions on Active Shooter Response Mental Wellness You are the Help until Help arrives CPR AED naloxone administration for opioid overdose Preparedness and Response for at-risk individuals and formations of strike teams.
