Rural areas, due to their close relationship with the natural environment and having limited capabilities, are highly vulnerable in the face of crises. With the establishment of village councils as a rural management institution in the country's villages, a suitable opportunity was provided to follow up, establish and continue the programs related to safety and crisis management in the rural community. Based on this, the aim of the current research is to measure the performance of fifth and sixth grade villagers in rural crisis management. The studied area is the central part of Bojnord city in North Khorasan province. The research method of the present study is descriptive-survey. In terms of the practical purpose and from the perspective of time, it was carried out in two periods of 1397 and 1401. The data collection tool is a researcher-made questionnaire. According to the description of the tasks of the rural organization, 14 tasks have been defined in the field of crisis management for villagers in three stages before, during and after the crisis. Out of a total of 77 inhabited villages, the villagers of 44 villages in the central part of Bojnord city, a total of 88 villagers have answered the questions of the questionnaire at two points in time. Data analysis was done using independent two-sample t-test and one-sample t-test in SPSS software. The results showed that 99% of the surveyed villages are exposed to floods and 95% are exposed to earthquakes. In order to compare the performance of the villagers according to the duties of the village organization, in the fifth (2018) and sixth (2024) periods, the t-test of two independent samples was used. The difference between the average performance of the villagers in the previous, during and after stages and in total the performance of the villagers in the fifth and sixth periods is average and not significant. Finally, due to the absence of a significant difference between the average performance of villagers in the fifth and sixth period, the average performance of 88 villagers in both periods was investigated with the theoretical median
