Agency: Community Recovery Team

Description: The Community Recovery Team's mission is to coordinate and provide emotional, physical, financial, and spiritual resources to help rebuild the homes and lives of families affected by disasters.

We work to assist in managing the Long Term Recovery process as well as provide support to Relief and Recovery Groups that activate in disaster.

Although recovery is still ongoing for those affected by the 2007 wildfires in San Diego County, our opportunities for volunteers are limited at this time. However, if you wish to be support our team in the event of a future disaster, please respond and we will contact you.

Volunteers with skills in office support, IT, fundraising, construction, landscaping, client services, and food distribution are especially needed.
