About this organization
Halifax Search and Rescue is a community-based volunteer organization dedicated to saving lives. Many of the lost subjects we search for are children. Knowing that if we could reach children at an early age and teach them basic survival skills, we could dramatically improve their chances for survival and their probability of being found should they become lost, Halifax Regional Search and Rescue introduced the Childrens Woods-proofing program. Team members travel to elementary schools, as well as Cub and Brownie groups, teaching the woods-proofing course. A film is shown, and with the aid of a simple book and lively discussion, the children learn the basics of woods survival.
