Information

I want to volunteer for disaster recovery

Howard County Department of Recreation and Parks is gearing up for the season's potential storms and winter weather by asking people to register as a Disaster Recovery Volunteer. This resource allows you to be contacted if your skills and support are needed during an emergency. 

  

Request for Volunteers

 

If you are looking for volunteers to assist with the aftermath of the recent disaster, you're in the right place.

Through Howard County’s Emergency Volunteer Management Team, we are identifying community needs and placing them in queue for when appropriate volunteers become available. We refer volunteers to support community-based organizations in their disaster response and recovery efforts. We are focused on matching volunteers to the needs of our partners in order to maximize the impact of volunteer support.

PLEASE KEEP IN MIND

 

  • We can't guarantee that all volunteer requests will be filled.
