The Disaster Leadership Team's mission is to provide support, mentoring, and long term recovery guidance to local leaders whose communities have experienced natural or manmade disasters.
Our Story
Mennonite Disaster Service (MDS) first brought together disaster leaders they had worked with from across the United States. In September 2016, the group met and shared experiences and stories. It was evident this group was filled with strong, determined leaders who were ready to help other communities facing the long road of disaster recovery.

We want to be there to support others who are facing the unbelievable obstacles and challenges that accompany disaster.
