Community Interfaith/Interagency Network Development
FIND encourages and supports the development of local
Interfaith/Interagency organizations in Florida communities to organize
to address disaster preparedness, mitigation, and to address unmet
needs and long term recovery.
Networking
Find facilitates communication, cooperation, collaboration, and
coordination among faith organizations, allied social service agencies
and governmental emergency management. FIND provides quarterly
workshops on a wide variety of state of the art disaster related
topics. In addition, the latest prevention and intervention strategies
are communicated from the relevant organization.
Emotional & Spiritual Dynamics of Crisis Support
FIND conducts training programs throughout the state to provide
clergy, disaster responders and caregivers with the tools needed to
maintain their own personal emotional, physical and spiritual fitness,
while they respond to the needs of those affected by disaster.
Mitigation
FIND works with allied agencies to promote awareness of mitigation
techniques and opportunities. FIND is uniquely able to help communities
and their leaders understand the concept of mitigation, identify
accomplishable projects, and access the resources to Make Mitigation
Happen.
