Search and Rescue is a emergency operation, requiring professionally trained personnel. Our basic training for state certification is funded by the Deschutes County Sheriff's Office. However, Deschutes County utilizes a variety of specialized resources to manage and perform our operations as efficiently as possible. The high quality specialty training that enhances our performance in the field requires added commitment of volunteer time, as well as additional funding. The Search and Rescue Foundation offers financial aid to rescue volunteers by funding in part or in whole tuition for these specialty training opportunities.
