National Search and Rescue Plan
The National Search and Rescue (SAR) Plan is a coordinated strategy used by government agencies, organizations, and volunteers to locate and assist people in distress or missing across the country. It provides a structured approach to ensure timely, effective rescue operations by defining roles, resources, and procedures. The plan aims to maximize safety and efficiency during emergencies, whether in remote wilderness, urban settings, or maritime environments. By working together under this plan, responders can quickly mobilize and deploy the right aid, increasing the chances of a successful rescue and saving lives.
