TERT
Telecommunicator Emergency Response Taskforce
In partnership, the National Emergency Number Association (NENA) and the Association of Public-Safety Communications Officials-International (APCO) are dedicated to the development of a nationally recognized program for telecommunicator mutual aid response in the aftermath of disasters, providing information as to operational deployment of Telecommunicator Emergency Response Taskforce (TERT) programs and taking a leadership role in assisting governmental agencies in the development of TERT style programs at the regional, state and local levels.
TERT in Nevada
Currently we are working on creating the system to establish a TERT team here in Nevada. We have several agencies that have expressed interest and are always looking for more! If you have any questions, please feel free to browse the resources we have published here or check the National TERT Initiative website here.
You can also contact Matt Grogan at mgrogan@lasvegasnevada.gov and he will be glad to answer any questions you might have!
