Disaster Preparedness

Make sure your family has a plan in case of an emergency. Decide how you will get in contact with each other, where you will go and what you will do in an emergency. Write down where your family spends the most time: work, school and other places you frequent.

COAD (Community Organizations Active in Disasters)
 
History of COAD- In June of 2008, following a number of disastrous floods through the state, Lilly Endowment created a $50,000,000 fund to assist Hoosiers who have suffered in those events.  $45,000,000 of that fund has been administered by Indiana Association of United Ways (IaUW) in two grant cycles.  Read more...
 
In our community- The Madison County COAD will be focused on volunteer coordination, case management, donations management, education, advocacy, spiritual care, mass care, mental health, information and referral, funding, and organizing a structure for long-term recovery.
