Mission Statement

Programs offered by REACT provide high level competency to emergency responders when they are confronted with catastrophic situations. This training eminence in specialized technical response capability allows responders to safely and effectively save lives.
About REACT
The REACT Center specializes in providing the training required for a safe and successful response to natural and manmade disasters to both Military and Civilian responders. Our facility is located in central Wisconsin and provides year round training. We have, at one location, both state of the art classroom facilities for 100 persons with distance learning capability and a 15 acre training ground. A second classroom is located adjacent to the training ground for instruction during training cycles or exercises. Meals and break refreshments for students are provided on site. Lodging for 77 students is available on post in close proximity to both the classroom and training ground. This minimizes the impact that travel has on our classes.
Our 15 acre outdoor training ground is equipped with structures to provide realistic response to collapsed lighweight and heavy construction. Included in these props are eight light and heavy rubble piles, an office collapse simulator and a structure with pan-caked floors. Breaching & burning, shoring construction, lifting and moving skills are taught at additional work stations so that the students can learn and improve their skills in a controlled environment. All tools required are provided for technical rescue training including heavy equipment needed for structural collapse technician classes. In 2008, the REACT Center provided training to over 400 firefighters and 200 military responders, and is the platform for skills maintenance for Wisconsin's heavy structural collapse rescue teams.
Because we work with both civilian first responders and Military responders, we offer the ability to provide interaction and training between these groups, enhancing the homeland security response of both groups.
