Membership
Interested in joining NEMCo? Membership is not required to be a NEMCo community volunteer. However, we do recommend obtaining a NEMCo membership as a credentialed Emergency Worker, which involves a background check and being registered as a Washington State Emergency Worker to support vital volunteer roles during events or a disaster.
To become a credentialed NEMCo Volunteer please complete the following forms and email them to NEMCo's Emergency Manager at NorthshoreEMC@gmail.com.
