Last week, ARES was represented by Johnston at the National Voluntary Organizations Active in Disaster (NVOAD) conference in Louisville, Kentucky. #NVOAD #hamradio

NVOAD attended the Disaster Resilience Summit hosted by Walmart this week. Events like these provide valuable opportunities to connect with members, corporate partners, and leaders who share a commitment to strengthening community resilience before, during, and after disasters.

Have you ever noticed that the NVOAD logo is shaped like an umbrella?

The umbrella is made up of National Members, State/Territory VOADs, and partners working together as one network. Together, we help cover communities across the nation and its territories.

In response to the ongoing needs of survivors, UMCOR is providing long-term recovery support through the California-Pacific Annual Conference and our regional NVOAD partners, building on our initial relief efforts. (2/5)

If you simply show up, you run the risk of becoming a liability and forcing existing humanitarian assets to come to your aid. If you are serious about helping out, NVOAD has a list of organizations you can volunteer with.
