Today, we recognize the incredible contributions of the 467 Medical Reserve Corps units that self-reported serving rural or frontier communities.
MRC volunteers provide critical benefits in these areas by:
✔Strengthening local public health capacity
✔Enhancing emergency preparedness
✔Filling vital healthcare gaps where resources may be limited
✔Supporting community resilience with tailored responses
From emergency response to everyday health initiatives, MRC units help ensure that rural and frontier populations receive support.
