The Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) Initiative was a FEMA program for more thanĀ 10 years and is now administered by The Citizen Corps.
We, as residents of Battery Park City, are keenly aware of the horrific events that impacted our neighborhood on and after 9/11. As a result we had strong motivation to mobilize our neighbors to be able to respond adequately should another disaster occur, whether man-made or natural.
