Resilient communities don't wait for disaster to strike
Become an EMA Ambassador
Resiliency is the strength of a community. It's how quick it can bounce back after stress or disasters. Resiliency is not response although it includes response. Our ambassador program will focus efforts starting in 2018 on resiliency training and artistic response. Please contact us directly if interested in becoming a community leader. CONTACT US

Train in advance
Free online response training
World Cares offers free online training for those that want to help with on-ground response.
Educate yourself about appropriate response
Not all help is helpful
Here is a great article about Harvey with lessons that can be applied to other disaster situations. For instance, one suggestion is not to send "stuff" people don't need. It can create what responders sometimes call "the second disaster".
Use Social Media
It can work
If it is accessible, use it. When Harvey was going some people received responses from neighbors and rescue teams by posting messages to Facebook and Twitter. Remember 911 is only for life-threatening emergencies.
