What is NDR?
Nazarene Disaster Response (NDR) is a national network of disaster volunteers—assisted by trained district, regional and national leaders—who cooperate with other national, state, and local agencies (i.e., American Red Cross, FEMA, NVOAD, and EOCs) to respond to victims of natural and human-made disaster. NDR is a member of the National Volunteer Agencies Active in Disaster (NVOAD) and partners with the American Red Cross (ARC).
The NDR Vision
NDR’s vision is based on the belief that the visible presence of the Church of the Nazarene is essential in any type of disaster situation. As part of the church’s ministry, NDR strives to work through local churches to provide spiritual, physical, and emotional support to those in trauma, grief, and in need. If the church is going to be a truly effective support center in our neighborhoods and communities, it must respond to the needs of people. NDR can help.
