About the First Responders CongressThe First Responders Congress is a forum to embrace the guidelines laid out in Homeland Security’s The National Response Framework, bringing together personnel from many areas, organizations, and disciplines to share knowledge and expertise. The primary goal of the FRC is to share knowledge, stimulate interdisciplinary communication, and develop more efficient and better coordinated responses to disasters of all types at all levels; national, state, and local.

The First Responders Congress is a meeting place for professionals on the frontline of defense of America. Whether it is a local or national response to accidents, natural disasters or terrorist activities, this front line of emergency response is critical to our homeland security and the protection of the people of the United States and our fragile environment. The FRC consists of emergency response personnel from a diverse array of organizations that include: firefighters, police, military, Homeland Security, DOE, NRC, national, state, and local emergency response organizations, search and rescue, EMT, equipment and services providers, trainers, and other related professionals.
