What is ACS Disaster Response?
Adventist Community Services volunteers provide disaster response services through the ACS Disaster Response Ministry to assist individuals, families and communities affected by natural disasters and unforeseen tragedies.

Who comprises the ACS Disaster Response Ministry?
The ACS Disaster Response Ministry is comprised of volunteers who form local disaster response teams that are organized by state disaster response coordinators. These state coordinators and teams assist regional disaster response coordinators to respond to multi-state calamities. The national disaster response coordinator manages the national program.

Who are ACS Disaster Response Partners?
ACS Disaster Response operates under a Statement of Understanding with the Federal Emergency Management Agency, the American Red Cross and many state emergency management agencies. It is also a founding member of the inter-agency compact called National Voluntary Organizations Active in Disaster (NVOAD). ACS is also a member of most state VOADs.
