Area Reps

What do Area Reps do?

Area Reps check on neighbors in an emergency

Each of the 25 Sectors are divided into "areas" of 8-12 reidences. Area Reps go door-to-door looking for the "OK Sign" displayed in a window, letting them know the occupants are just that - "OK".

If there is no sign present, the Area Rep will knock on the door to check on the welfare of all residents, and report back to their Sector Chief located at the Aid Station.

If there is structural damage or any other observable damage, the Area Rep will complete the Damage Assessment Form and reports his/her findings to the Sector Chief.

Area Reps DO NOT rescue or administer First Aid.
