Written to be read
in a hurry.

Household kits, seventy-two hour plans, and street-level response.

Training & instruction

Field briefings, hands-on practice, and refreshers before an assignment.

Ministry & chaplaincy

What presence looks like when there is nothing to fix.

Training materials

The topics we train.

The subjects our instructors teach. New volunteers start with readiness basics and add the skills of their role from there.

01

First response and CPR practice

Hands-on practice in compression-only CPR, bleeding control, and steady support at a community emergency.

02

Household readiness planning

Building a kit and a written plan a household will actually use when the power, water, or roads are gone.

03

Chaplaincy and the ministry of presence

Arriving, staying, and praying without pressure when there is nothing to fix.

04

Administrative and dispatch support

Scheduling, records, radio and phone support, and the quiet logistics that make a response possible.

05

Community outreach and distribution

Neighborhood contact, food and supply distribution, and reaching people who will not call for help themselves.

06

International service preparation

Working well inside someone else's context: cultural care, logistics, and deployment support for relief work abroad.

07

Tactical civil unrest training

Crowd safety, de-escalation, and protection for members called to peace and security work.

Training is scheduled with our instructors and announced to volunteers. Call or text 929-642-9645 to ask what is coming up, or to request a topic for your group.

Need a team, not a handout

Ask us to come and teach.

We come to churches, schools, and neighborhood meetings to teach household readiness, hands-only CPR, and basic emergency response. There is no charge to ask.
