About SAR DR
Our Role in Disasters
Drawing from our 1400+ highly trained search and rescue (SAR) members, we supply a much-needed resource to support municipalities, First Nations and other agencies responding to civil emergencies.
Our specialty SAR DR responders provide the right resources, at the right time, in the right place.
Task Forces
Through significant wildfire and other civil emergency responses, SAR Alberta has established the capability to deploy integrated task forces.
These task forces are composed of multi-disciplinary, highly trained search and rescue responders from across the province, organized to deliver coordinated, scalable support to complex incidents.
Designed for flexibility, task forces bring together a mix of skills, leadership and resources to meet evolving operational needs during disasters and civil emergencies.
