The City of Renton is sponsoring a Disaster Job Fair on Sept. 25 to provide information and answer questions about volunteering as an emergency responder in the community during and following a disaster.

The job fair is 3 - 8 p.m. at the seventh floor conference center, City Hall, 1055 S. Grady Way.

The event will include demonstrations and displays on a wide variety of topics such as CERT, emergency operations center worker, radio emergency communications, shelter operations, animal rescue and more.

The fair is part of “Ready in Renton,” the city’s observance of National Preparedness Month in September.
