NETWORKING
CORE provides individuals with important life-saving skills and information, but an organized group of CORE-trained volunteers can be much more effective than a single person providing emergency response for a neighborhood.
The Oakland Fire Department, Office of Emergency Services recognizes that many CORE volunteers are not yet members of organized CORE neighborhoods, so we present opportunities for CORE volunteers throughout the city to find and network with each other in hopes of either creating new or joining existing CORE Groups.
In addition to occasional networking events, we offer two ongoing networking opportunities in the form of an online CORE discussion group, where you can reach out electronically to other CORE volunteers citywide, and a CORE Group Leader Roster, which lists organized CORE Groups by geographical region so you can identify and contact a CORE Group Leader in your area. Please click the links above for more information about each of these networking avenues.
