National CERT Week

Join the National CERT Association (NCA) as we relaunch National CERT Week! A week-long event, National CERT Week highlights and celebrates the accomplishments of all CERT programs across the country. Each year there will be a theme—2025’s theme is “Every Community Needs a CERTain Kind of Hero”—and the NCA will provide suggestions and a digital toolkit that teams can use to help raise awareness of CERT and the important work you do in your community. National CERT Week will be held annually on the third week of September, in conjunction with National Preparedness Month.

In 2025, National CERT Week will be held September 14 - 20.

This year’s toolkit includes:

Key Messages
Sample Press Release
Proclamation Request Process
Daily Content Calendar for Social Media
Shareable Images and Logos
