A Disaster Action Team (DAT) is a team of trained Red Cross volunteers who respond to the scene of a disaster to provide immediate relief to victims. DAT volunteers ease the difficulties of people unexpectedly overwhelmed by disasters. You would be called on to interview, counsel and comfort disaster victims, and assess damage.
To be a DAT member, you must be 18 years or older; in good health and willing to make a commitment to a team. All disaster training is free!
