Perform Aid to Civil Authorities
OSRT is an Ohio EMA ESF-9 Search & Rescue Team
But we do MUCH more!
Unit Locations
We have 7 units throughout the state of Ohio where you can meet and train, with new units forming all the time. Most units meet and train together monthly. All units of the Ohio Special Response Team (OSRT) get together for Field Training Exercises (FTX), specialized training, fundraising, and other events.
