How to Get Involved

The Humboldt COAD is a network of community-based Member and Partner Organizations. It does not enlist individual volunteers, but does include representation from each organization. The definitions of members and partners are detailed below. There is no cost to participate in the COAD.

As a reminder, the Humboldt COAD does not enlist individual volunteers. However, many of our listed Members and Partners regularly rely on the power of volunteerism, If you’d rather become an individual volunteer with an organization that does take volunteers, we are happy to help you get in contact with one.. Please see above for definitions of Member and Partner Organizations

COAD Partner Organizations
Partner Organizations are agencies, tribes, municipalities, and other governmental bodies. These entities partner with the COAD network to coordinate with the community before, during, and after disasters. This includes Offices of Emergency Services.

COAD Member Organizations
Member Organizations are nonprofits, faith-based organizations, service clubs, businesses, and other similar entities. They designate one representative and one alternate. One of these two participants can then attend COAD meetings and participate in COAD Working Groups.

The Humboldt COAD is made up of regional community based organizations, non-governmental organizations, and agency partners who focus on a mission to create sustainable disaster preparedness and resiliency.
