​Our History​


For many years missing people in Warren County New Jersey depended on the local police, ambulance, fire, and road departments for help and assistance. In November of 2007, recognizing a need for a highly trained and specialized unit, several K9 trainers began discussing the development of a formal search team. On April 9, 2008 the Search and Rescue Teams of Warren County (Station 24) was founded with 16 members from a variety of backgrounds including EMS, Fire, Police, Nursing, and the Military. Since then,  SARTWC has assisted in search operations across the states of New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and New York. Our dedicated volunteers continue to commit themselves to the training it takes to quickly and efficiently find a person who is lost.​
