ABOUT EVP

The Emergency Volunteers Project (EVP) was established 19 years ago to train civilian volunteers to become emergency responders in their home communities and in Israel during crisis, and train first responders to equip them with more skills according to the Israeli approach and deploy them as volunteers to support Israel's Emergency Services during crisis. EVP trained thousands of volunteers and first responders in the US and Israel to date. Our team create specialized training programs for community civilian teams, law enforcement, first responders and places of worship.

Since our foundation we have trained thousands of civilians, security teams and first responders in the US and Israel by instructors from the Israeli emergency and security services and other agencies and by EVP trainers. We are the only organization that has the approval from the Israeli Parliament, Minister of Defense, Minister of Interior, the IDF and the Israeli Fire & Rescue Services to do what we do.
