When tragedy strikes, first responders are always the first there.
But in the background lies a Red Cross team dedicated to getting those affected back on track. Whether it be financially, or pointing them in the right direction and where to go next, they are the Disaster Action Team.
“We turn tragedy into hope, Eastern New York Disaster Action Team lead Jay Belfiore says. It’s a group of people that when people have the worst day of their life, we go out and try and give them hope to move on to the next step.”
