Chapter Committees
Disaster Preparedness Committee
The Society’s Disaster Preparedness Committee works to develop a list of training resources where members who wish to volunteer in disaster situations can receive approved training, as well as a list of organizations where they can volunteer once they are trained. The Committee also works to compile a list of members who are trained in disaster response and the disaster response organizations with whom they are affiliated. To obtain training, locate an organization where you can volunteer, to inform the Society if you have had disaster response training and/or are a volunteer in a disaster response organization, or if you want information about disaster response preparedness you may contact the committee chairperson.
