By Carolyn Neher, associate director, and Michael D. Scalzi, program assistant, Children’s Disaster Services

Children’s Disaster Services (CDS) is preparing to hold three new volunteer training events in September and October 2024. Our upcoming CDS Volunteer Training events are:

Sept. 27-28 at Frederick (Md.) Church of the Brethren, starting at 4:30 p.m. Friday and ending at 5:30 p.m. on Saturday                            

Sept. 28-29 at Modesto (Calif.) Church of the Brethren, starting at 8:30 a.m. Saturday and ending at 9:30 a.m. on Sunday

Oct. 18-19 at St. John’s Lutheran Church in Victor, N.Y., starting at 4:30 p.m. Friday and ending at 5:30 p.m. on Saturday                            

Please share this information with churches in your districts, those who are 18 years or older, who have a heart for children, and may be interested in becoming Children’s Disaster Services volunteers. CDS training information and training registration links are online. Those who are interested in the mission of CDS to bring comfort and serve the needs of children during disaster responses can learn more at www.brethren.org/cds.

For currently certified CDS volunteers: If it has been more than five years since you have been out on a disaster response or taken a workshop, we suggest attending a volunteer training as a refresher to review policies, procedures, and updates regarding disaster responses.
