The conference will include disaster-related trainings, over 30 educational workshops and valuable collaboration and networking opportunities for over 500 participants.
This is the only time each year when emergency management volunteers and professional come together from across the country to share best practices, new ideas and develop whole community solutions for building more resilient communities.

Donate Responsibly
Donate through a trusted organization – At the national level, many voluntary, faith and community-based organizations are active in disasters, and are trusted ways to donate to disaster survivors. In addition to the national members, each state has its own list of our National VOAD members. If you’d like to donate or volunteer to assist those affected by disaster, these organizations are the best place to start.
What is National VOAD?
National Voluntary Organizations Active in Disaster (VOAD) is a nonprofit, nonpartisan membership organization that serves as the forum where organizations share knowledge and resources throughout the disaster cycle—preparation, response, recovery and mitigation—to help communities prepare for and recover from disasters.
The National VOAD coalition includes over 50 of the country’s most reputable national organizations (faith-based, community-based and other non-governmental organizations) and 55 State/Territory VOADs, which represent Local/Regional VOADs and hundreds of other member organizations throughout the country.
