Mission: from website:

Crisis Response International (CRI) is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization that resources, trains and mobilizes volunteers, churches and other organizations to respond to disasters and other compassion initiatives in the United States and world-wide. CRI is creating a culture of responders to reach the harvest in crisis in our immediate neighborhoods through local outreach and home groups and through national and international deployments.

CRI provides a model and framework for responding to disaster situations and delivering resources to areas that would otherwise be off-limits to volunteers. Our procedures and training avoid what the government calls “the second disaster”, when spontaneous resources and untrained volunteers arrive on scene.

CRI is a disaster relief organization that integrates into local, state and federal response efforts through our relationships with both community, state and federal level volunteer organizations active in disaster. In the event of a disaster, CRI can assimilate into the Incident Com mand System (ICS) according to the National Incident Management System (NIMS).

Working from an established field command post alongside other various organizations, CRI manages operations, resources and personnel to carry out various tasks and services. Operations vary upon the size and scope of the disaster. CRI not only focuses on training and equipping volunteers for disaster situations, but it also conducts on-going efforts to help lower-income communities around the world.

05/22/11 - Joplin Tornado Response

A powerful tornado ripped through Joplin, MO about 6pm this evening leveling about 75% of the city, killing at least 24 people and crippling critical infrastructure and communications. CRI is sending a team to make an assessment and we have notified responders in the area that CRI is deploying. CRI Responder Wade Bakker has been doing search and rescue in the region and is now heading to Joplin to set up a response post for CRI. Please check the CRI Facebook page for regular updates.
