Enhanced Volunteer
OUR MISSION
SCVSAR is an all-volunteer organization delivering emergency response to those in need across the county’s urban and wilderness areas. We have over 300 dedicated members, and perform more than 120 life-saving missions each year – logging over 9,500 hours of service. Our capabilities include wilderness and urban search, K-9 search, helicopter rescue, tracking, 4×4 rescue, technical swift-water and mountain rescue, and emergency first aid.
We operate in coordination with the Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office (SCSO), and partner with surrounding counties in supporting each other through mutual aid.
