Many local organizations need your help in preparing for and responding to emergencies and disasters in the community. Volunteers are a large part of most community responses through pre-disaster response training, donations, and knowledge of local resources. Do your part in creating a more resilient community.
There are many ways to get involved, especially before a disaster occurs. The whole community can participate in programs and activities to make their families, homes and communities safer from risks and threats. Community leaders agree the formula for ensuring a safer homeland consists of volunteers, a trained and informed public, and increased support of emergency response agencies during disasters. Major disasters can overwhelm first responder agencies, empowering individuals to lend their support.
