How Does ADRA International Help In The United States?
ADRA International primarily allocates funding to the Adventist Community Services (ACS) for domestic programs. Funds are primarily used for disaster relief projects but also for community development projects. ACS operates under a Memorandum of Understanding with the Federal Emergency Management Agency, the American Red Cross, and many state emergency management agencies. It is also a founding member of the interagency compact called National Voluntary Organizations Active in Disaster (NVOAD) and the affiliated state VOADs.
