MINISTRY IN ACTION

INTRODUCTION

When a community endures a disaster, whether a natural disaster, terrorist attack, or criminal activities, members in the community experience trauma at some level. The principal focus of Ministry in Action is to offer support during trauma and restoration of those victims to safe and normal life. The local church is a valuable resource for committed volunteers and disaster recovery centers. The partnership of Western Pennsylvania CERT Ministry in Action Teams with local churches is key as volunteers are trained and facilities are utilized.
