Training Activity: New York HOPE Field Training Exercise

July 30 August 2

New York HOPE is a hands-on field training exercise designed to simulate a large-scale domestic disaster response. This immersive experience challenges participants to step outside their comfort zones while building real-world emergency response skills.

Participants work in teams, rotating through leadership roles as they respond to complex, evolving scenarios. Training components include mass casualty response, water rescue operations, secondary triage and treatment, damage assessment, and emergency operations coordination (Incident Command, EOC, and Cyber response).

This dynamic exercise strengthens teamwork, leadership, and decision-making under pressure—key skills for any emergency responder.

You can apply as a participant. List CNYMRC as your organization. If chosen as a participant, you should know:

  • Must participate Thursday 4:30 pm – Sunday 1:00 pm
  • Must complete assigned training in advance of exercise
  • For the exercise to feel real as a responder, you will be working and living in an austere environment (think cots for sleeping and no showers).

Or you can apply as a role player. Details coming soon. Friends and family 18 and older are encouraged to apply as well.
