Early Response Team Training
November 23 @ 9:00 am – 2:30 pm
UMCOR provides several courses for Early Response Teams (ERTs) through a network of badged local trainers. ERTs fill a specific need in the early days after a disaster to help to prevent further damage while providing a caring Christian presence.
ERTs are not a first-response group of emergency workers, nor are they recovery, rebuild, or repair teams. Under very specific guidelines, ERTs assist survivors without causing further harm or being a burden to the affected community.
ERT Classes help participants understand how United Methodists are involved during a disaster, how we get prepared for a disaster, and what we can do when a disaster strikes.
This class consists of two parts, and you must attend both sessions to complete the course. The first session will be held virtually on November 21 from 6:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. We will send the meeting link a few days before the session. The second session will be at Grace UMC on November 23 from 9:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.
