Disaster Program:
The American Red Cross, through its network of chapters, service delivery units and national headquarters operations, provides disaster relief services to people affected by disasters 24 hours a day, 365 days of the year.
The American Red Cross in New York State (ARC/NYS) is comprised of 31 chapters, with 6 regional chapters that oversee operations of the component chapters. Additionally, ARC/NYS has two state coordinating chapters that work directly with American Red Cross National Headquarters during disaster relief operations.
Through its Statewide Disaster Consortium, ARC/NYS promotes preparedness, readiness and capacity building to improve response capabilities of each chapter in New York State.
The ARC/NYS Disaster Response Plan provides coordination procedures and implementation guidance for delivering disaster relief services within New York State through the regional chapter structure. This plan is designed to ensure uninterrupted service delivery as the scope of a natural or human-caused disaster grows, demanding human and material resources that exceed the initial capacity of affected chapters.
Additionally, response within the ARC/NYS structure is based on the concept of mutual aid. While there are community and regional chapters within New York State and two coordinating chapters, mutual aid involves the transfer of resources from one regional grouping to another within New York State.
ARC/NYS regional chapters are responsible for coordinating and implementing regional disaster response plans in addition to leveraging resources from our community partners through Memorandums of Understanding.
