Portage County Medical Reserve Corps Mission StatementThe mission of the Portage County Medical Reserve Corps is to assist local response efforts during a public health emergency or large-scale event. Through a coordinated Volunteer Reception Center, health professionals (licensed and non-licensed) and community volunteers will come together to assist the Portage County Health Department with various assigned tasks.

The Medial Reserve Corps is comprised of local health professionals
(licensed and non-licensed) and community volunteers who are
able to assist their community during the time of a public
health emergency such as chemical
spills, influenza epidemic, or an act of terrorism. The
volunteers offer education and prevention services that improve
public health infrastructure of their neighborhoods.
