Emergency Disaster Services
Lebanon Corps Emergency Disaster Services Information
When disaster strikes, The Salvation Army is prepared to provide immediate relief and long-term recovery support. Our dedicated team responds quickly to disasters, providing essential supplies, food, and spiritual and emotional care to those in need. We work tirelessly to meet the immediate needs of survivors and offer hope and support during a time of crisis.
Our local Lebanon Emergency Disaster Services team provides the following services:
- Immediate Emergency Response: We respond to fires, floods, and other emergencies in Lebanon and surrounding counties immediately. These immediate response activities include hot meals and hydration services, shelter, and counseling. We work diligently with The Red Cross to ensure all needs are met in the wake of a disaster.
- Spiritual and Emotional Care: In the aftermath of a major disaster, The Salvation Army provides spiritual comfort and emotional care upon request to victims and emergency workers coping with the stress of a catastrophe. Salvation Army counselors, often our ordained pastors, offer a "ministry of presence" where they are available to provide support.
- Volunteer Staffing: We recruit, train, and deploy disaster volunteers. Volunteers are trained to meet all kinds of needs by providing food, shelter, clothing, and emotional and spiritual comfort to those affected by the incident. We also help coordinate community volunteers during large-scale efforts.
Across Lebanon County, The Salvation Army is there to lend a hand.
When disaster strikes in our region, we create and execute a comprehensive emergency response plan. As one of the most well-known disaster relief organizations in the country, The Salvation Army is ready with immediate response and recovery plans unique to the community affected. We’re among the first on the scene, and we stay long after a catastrophe has passed.
