    Description

    Disaster Strikes Big - So Must Our Response. Join the Local Red Cross Disaster Team!

    DISASTER ACTION TEAM volunteers support individuals and families right at home. While big hurricanes and wildfires get the most news coverage, smaller disasters are no less devastating to the families affected. Most of the 60,000 emergencies that the Red Cross responds to each year are smaller disasters like home fires. In this role, you can help comfort and support people in your community by meeting their immediate needs, such as food, shelter, clothing, or supplies, and connecting them to long-term recovery services. We supply all the training you need.

    This is great way to give back in your community!

    No experience is necessary - ALL are welcome.

    Time Commitment

    Sign up for on-call shifts to be available to respond if needed

    Requirements:

    Must be 18 years of age with a valid drivers license.

    Comfort with computers/tablets is necessary

    Benefits

    • Opportunities to meet fellow volunteers involved in humanitarian efforts
    • Receive Specialized Training
    • Opportunities for Leadership and Career development
    • Ability to respond to National Disasters
