In order to continue to support MRC units detailed information about the MRC units, including unit demographics, contact information (regular and emergency), volunteer numbers and information about unit activities is needed by the MRC Program. MRC Unit Leaders are asked to update this information on the MRC website at least quarterly and to participate in a technical assistance assessment using the Capability Assessment at least annually.
