The Cook County Medical Reserve Corps (CCMRC) is an organized group of medical, non-medical and public health professionals willing to assist the Cook County Department of Public Health (CCDPH) during public health emergencies.

CCDPH is the state certified public health agency for suburban Cook County with the exception of Chicago, Evanston, Skokie, Oak Park, and Stickney Township, and they are currently recruiting volunteers for the CCMRC program to assist in our emergency response actions.
