Mobilizing Volunteers in Times of Disaster

 

How can I help in times of emergency ?

In an emergency,  volunteers may be needed to
-  cook,
-  drive trucks,
-  answer phones,
-  pack sandbags,
-  and many other tasks.

Volunteers will also be needed to staff a Volunteer Mobilization Center.  A Volunteer Mobilization Center provides a place to organize volunteers so that people who want to help know where to go so their skills can best be used.
