Wisconsin AmeriCorps Disaster Team
Summary of Initiative:
The Wisconsin AmeriCorps Disaster Team is a team of AmeriCorps members from across the state of Wisconsin willing to help respond to disasters. As a member of the disaster team, you will receive training to effectively help respond and recover from disasters and participate in statewide exercises with other disaster response organizations. Throughout the year, participants will have access to various training options, participate in monthly cohort meetings, and, if needed, volunteer in response to a disaster.
The Wisconsin AmeriCorps Disaster Team is open to all AmeriCorps members and program staff with Wisconsin AmeriCorps programs.
