DEPLOYMENT VOLUNTEERS  |  HURRICANE HARVEY

Volunteer Registration for Hurricane Harvey has closed.

All volunteers MUST watch this Pre-Deployment video from Christ In Action before registering

Disaster zones are hazardous areas, and we need everyone to be on the same page so we can operate safely as a

unified team. Please take a few minutes and watch this video to hear some of what to expect while deployed with CIA.

• All volunteers must be 18 years old and in good health. The work we are doing is hard work in the hot sun and high humidity.
• There is no cost to volunteer with us, we provide food and lodging, but trasportation is your responsibility.
• You must submit your arrival and departure dates with your online registration.
• We require a full day (7am-6pm) minimum commitment. If you arrive in the middle of the day you probably will not be able to go out into the community, but you may be able to help around the basecamp. If you are a local volunteer, we will still need you to register online, arrive by 7AM, and plan to work all day until 6PM. We cannot make exceptions. 
• We are not able to facilitate RV hook ups this time at Camp Hope, however there may be some parking available. Please let us know if you plan to bring your RV.
• Each volunteer must register 24 hours in advance so we know exactly who and how many people will be coming so we can plan our work teams and which jobs we can do each day.
• Please print and sign the CIA Volunteer Waiver form and bring it with you to the site, Camp Hope.
• When registering, provide your arrival and departure date. We are currently accepting volunteers through October 31, 2017. 

After registering online, you will receive 2 emails:

1. Registration Confirmation: This email will be an automated confirmation that we successfully received your registration.
2. Approval email: This will come within 24 hours of registration and contain the location of our site and instructions on what to pack and any other pertinent details. If you are "denied" it is most likely because we have reached our maximum capacity for that time frame and we will suggest other dates.
