How Disaster Volunteer Works

Ham Operators Deploy

Licensed amateur radio operators activate emergency events and collect survivor information at staging areas — even when cell towers and internet are down.

Operators Relay by Radio

At each aid station a ham operator collects the on-the-ground picture — triage tags, headcounts, resource needs — and calls it out by voice radio to Net Control and to neighboring aid stations. When any operator reaches an internet connection the consolidated picture syncs to the Disaster Volunteer servers so families and agencies can see it.

Families Find Each Other

Submit a search request above. When a ham logs someone matching your search, you'll receive an email with their location and status.
