We are gearing up to do a massive recruitment and deployment. We are doing some pre-deployment across the nation. Locally we have 11 people on standby and we currently have 12 people already in the South working on hurricane Katrina.
People try to recycle, but even well-intentioned efforts are not followed through.
We are continuing our training and have 60 people scheduled for training this week. We already trained 50 during the last session. Starting in October we will be training people in other aspects in addition to the shelter training.
It's possible they may be shifted around based on the need and how many people we have.
