Disaster Action Team (DAT) Duty Officers are the behind-the-scenes heroes who coordinate local emergency responses in real time. From the comfort of your home, you’ll ensure that people affected by disasters receive the care and support they need by dispatching volunteers to the scene.
If you are comfortable talking on the phone with new people, learning new computer applications, and can keep folks organized this is the perfect role for you!
In this role, you'll receive calls from first-responders that are on scene at small-scale local disasters, like home fires. You'll collect the information about the event, how many people/pets need assistance and how bad the damage is. Then, you'll call the Disaster Action Team members that are on-call and respond in-person to provide assistance.
