ON-LINE DISASTER SERVICES VOLUNTEER TRAINING

Are you interested in learning more about being an Emergency & Disaster Services Volunteer?

With a rise in major natural disasters in recent years, people have an increased desire to help but few know how. We are hosting a series of training webinars to explain the role volunteer organizations play in a major disaster and to understand what it means to volunteer effectively during a disaster response. The trainings can be taken as standalone trainings or a series.

WHAT: WEBINAR TRAININGS -MASS CARE & EMERGENCY ASSISTANCE

WHEN:

• Mass Care & Emergency Assistance - Thursday 2/4/21, 4pm - 5:30pm

• The Role of Voluntary Organizations in Disasters - Thursday 2/11/21, 4pm - 5:30pm

• Civil Rights & Disaster Assistance - Saturday 2/20/21, 9am - 10:30am

WHO:Anyone interested in learning more about becoming an Emergency & Disaster Services Volunteer.

HOW: Register for the "shift" for the webinar(s) you wish to attend. The webinars will be hosted via Zoom. Participants must have access to a mobile device or computer and the internet. Registered participants will be emailed a Zoom link prior to the training.

NOTE:

By completing this or any future trainings, you are not committing to being deployed during a disaster, nor is The Salvation Army implying that you will be deployed. The trainings are intended to both educate those interested in learning more about volunteering during a disaster, and equip volunteers so they are better prepared for deployment if the need or opportunity rises.

If you have any questions please email Golden State Division Volunteer Manager, Melissa Doppler, or call her at 415-553-3528.

(You can volunteer for this opportunity remotely)
