Southeast Wisconsin Citizen Corps (SEWICC) consists of volunteer programs such as CERT (Community Emergency Response Training), VIPS (Volunteers In Police Service), MRC (Medical Reserve Corps), WisTAP (Wisconsin Terrorism Awareness Program), Fire Corps, Neighborhood Watch, and SERT (School Emergency Response Training).

These programs work in conjunction with each other to provide community-based disaster readiness training and awareness as well as personal empowerment and the tools citizens need to keep themselves and their families safe in the event of an emergency or disaster. They are funded by the office of Justice Assistance, administered by the Wisconsin Citizen Corps Council, and in partnership with Racine and Kenosha Counties Emergency Management.
