ROCHESTER, N.Y. — With hurricane season underway, the American Red Cross is holding an event in Rochester on Wednesday to train volunteers to help people impacted by disasters.
The Volunteer Boot Camp is taking place from 4 to 6 p.m. at the Greater Rochester Chapter on 825 John St. in Henrietta. The Red Cross is encouraging people to sign up if they’re interested in disaster response, shelter operations, community outreach, logistics, health services, or mental health support. You can sign up here. The Red Cross is also seeking licensed health and mental health professionals, including physicians, nurses, EMTs, and paramedics.
The training event comes after Hurricane Isaias slammed the Florida Panhandle and Alabama over the weekend, with at least four deaths linked to the storm. The Red Cross has helped with storm relief by opening or supporting 21 evacuation centers across Florida, Mississippi, and Alabama.
Red Cross teams have distributed food, water, and other essentials in heavily impacted communities. You can donate to support the Red Cross here or by calling 1-800-RED CROSS.
