WORKSHOP FOR DISASTER-AID AGENCIES

A new umbrella group, V.I. Voluntary Organizations Active in Disasters, is hosting the first of two free workshops for member agencies and other voluntary groups involved locally in responding to disasters. Both sessions will address how to manage donated goods and volunteer services in a large-scale disaster and communicate effectively to the public. It will be held at the VITEMA headquarters on St. Thomas, in the AQ Building across from Nisky Center. For details, call Gritell Thompson at 777-8518 or Cecelia Tyson-Prince at 774-7579.
