Disaster Recovery Team Training and Consulting
With Warren Dale
Fulfilling your mission of disaster recovery doesn’t stop at rebuilding a local shelter or distributing food and clothing, it requires quality help in the emotional side of recovery.
All organizations require up to date knowledge and skill building for continuing to respond to the kinds of disasters we all face. Let’s talk about your experience and how you help the on-site team fully facilitate disaster recovery.
Disaster recovery organizations pride themselves on their knowledge and experience, however, they have trouble empowering the volunteer that is on-site hearing the stories of grief and trauma. We work with you in enhancing your programs in a way that empowers the full line of connection from organizational leaders to the survivors. We help your teams facilitate healing and stay healthy themselves.
The best training is often forgotten when the team deploys to the disaster sites. Our training is memorable, enhanced with the easily reviewed manual. Let’s put our manual in their hands of those who are helping others.
We specialize in preparing team leaders for responding to the emotional side of disaster recovery and in providing the team with specific, useable tools for on-site situations and the teams after care.
