Disaster Response at Northland are teams that train for and respond to disasters, complementing and supporting government and emergency agencies as they respond to communities in need. Teams feed survivors and first responders and assist with a variety of medical, personal and community needs. For training purposes and to serve our local community, teams regularly participate in community outreach activities.
