I am Chris Perry, the founder of the National Disaster Response Team and I created this organization with one goal in mind,Helping people caught in a disaster.
I have been asked several times; With so many organizations out there that help during disasters, Why create another one?
Fact: In a major disaster situation, local, state and federal resources are going to be overwhelmed by the amount of devastation, injury, loss of life and property, (Hurricane Andrew & Katrina are good examples) and some of these losses will be within the very agencies and organizations designed to help you when a disaster strikes.
For the year 2010 alone, Mississippi, Alabama, Tennessee, Oklahoma, Kansas, just to name a few have been hit hard by natural disasters. Louisiana, hit by a man made disaster that will effect the entire country economically. So many of the local, state and federal agencies and organizations are already being stretched thin by these events. And we haven't even entered the fire and hurricane seasons yet.
Another common question is; What makes your organization different than other better known organizations or agencies.
The answer to this question may surprise you. I simply stepped outside the "box" and looked in. I researched every aspect of a disaster that was possible. I looked for what worked and what didn't. I researched any possible obstacles that any organization or agency would encounter in a disaster and even created a few of my own then set about working on viable solutions to each of those obstacles. These solutions played a major role in the creation of Safe Haven One (SHO) (This project is described more on the next page.)
We do not have all the answers AND will never claim to have. But we do promise this: We will always strive to be prepared and give the best possible disaster response services available in any given disaster situation.
Welcome to the next step in Disaster Response
