After my experiences with the hurricanes in the gulf, I decided to join the Orange County Chapter of the American Red Cross. I joined the Communications team which uses amateur and commercial frequencies and systems to help with chapter operations, specifically, radio communications from remote shelters back to headquarters. I also recently joined the Disaster Action Team (DAT) to be available for 24-hour call-outs to assist clients, for example, if a residential fire displaces a family.
