Disaster Response Training

Welcome to Disaster Response Training!

Whether you’ve served in crises before or are simply looking for ways to help your community, this training will prepare you to make a real difference when it’s needed most. By completing this seminar on Donations Operations, you’ll be eligible to become a credentialed volunteer with Adventist Community Services (ACS), equipping you to serve officially in disaster response efforts. You’ll learn how to help coordinate aid, to provide support to those in need, and to bring hope to communities in crisis.
