Take A Class

---

Are you prepared?  Is your family, school, or workplace prepared?  Your El Paso Red Cross offers a variety of classes to help you prevent, prepare for, and respond to emergencies. 

In the event of a disaster, emergency medical response may be delayed. Until professional help arrives, your emergency training could mean the difference between life and death. We can provide you with the information and skills needed in order to keep your family and co-workers, or even a complete stranger, safe when disaster strikes.

If you are taking the course as a requirement for your employer, please verify which class(es) are required. Please refer to our refund policy found below in the FAQ's.
