Disaster Action Team Updates:

 

Meetings are usually the first Monday of each month alternating between the office in Beverly and the Public Library in Newburyport.  Reminder e-mails are sent about one week in advance of each meeting.

 

Whenever possible, please e-mail or call to let us know if you are able to attend the meeting as this will help us plan for copies of materials and snacks(!).  However,  you are always welcome whether or not you have responded to the meeting e-mail.  If you have ideas for agenda items or questions that you would like to be addressed at an upcoming meeting please e-mail Cindy Quinn at cquinn@northeastmassredcross.org.


Late Breaking info...

 

Reminder: Those of you thinking about/planning for regional or national deployment should check the DSHR page for the latest information on deploying.  Now, while things are hopefully quiet, is the time to update and/or expand your training.
