No matter where disaster strikes, The Salvation Army is there within hours. The Salvation Army helps meet the disaster survivors through:

Emergency Preparedness
Our experience covers decades of leading recovery efforts – since the 1900 Galveston Hurricane, our trained staff and volunteers have served survivors and first responders of every major disaster.

Immediate Emergency Response
Disasters and emergencies strike without much warning, but you can count on The Salvation Army to be on the spot, providing relief within hours, because we’re already part of the community.

Emotional and Spiritual Care
Some effects of disasters are unseen – many survivors and first responders suffer emotional stress and trauma. The Salvation Army delivers vital emotional and spiritual care they need.

Long-Term Disaster Recovery
The Salvation Army leads long-term recovery efforts for as long as a community needs us. That often means we stay to help months, even years, after a disaster. We work with local, state, and federal governments to form a long-term disaster recovery plan.

In providing its disaster relief programs and services, The Salvation Army is committed to accommodating all those in need without unlawful discrimination or harassment based on age, race, color, religion, sex, national origin, marital status, disability, citizenship, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, or any other characteristic in accordance with our capacity to help.
