National Emergency Response Teams

How the NSRT Works
The National Special Response Team (NSRT) is a national level program able to focus significant resources locally. The NSRT:

  • Forms at the first of every year when Valor volunteers from every region in the country commit to months of training and development and a willingness to respond to serious disasters or critical incidents anytime and anywhere
  • Is organized into regional teams led by Valor Regional Vice Presidents and other management level personnel
  • Personnel train in emergency management, critical incident response and disaster response and undergo a variety of physical preparations from equipment acquisition to vaccination prior to response
  • Is able to operate on a completely self-sufficient camping basis in disaster areas where public services and agencies are not yet available
  • Is activated by Valor national management oftentimes in advance of an anticipated condition or event

The NSRT has responded very successfully to numerous disaster and emergency situations of a wide variety in support of – or sometimes in replacement – on site operations and personnel.
