HDS seeks diversity among our CRPs, including gender, ethnicity, age, body types, disabilities, and foreign language abilities. Participants fluent in American Sign Language are also desired.  Priority will be given to those with previous experience with role-playing, acting, military, and/or first responder/disaster response experience. Those who have participated in past disaster preparedness exercises have found it especially rewarding because you get to support an important community service that saves lives and protects the citizens of your state while getting paid to have FUN while doing so. There is no security clearance requirement, so it is open to all, but criminal background checks and U.S. employment eligibility checks will be accomplished.  All personnel must have appropriate IDs and be without a criminal background.  All IDs are scanned by security personnel and persons with felony convictions will not be allowed to participate. Due to a potentially strenuous decontamination process, and varying outside temperatures, CRPs should not have life-threatening or serious medical conditions.
