Guidelines for Emergency and Disaster Responders Site

Greetings one and all,

This site is an expression of my over 25 years of Chaplaincy and Emergency and Disaster Response. This site does officially not reflect any group that I work for or belong to... instead it is dedicated to the responders who need all the support and encouragement they can get as they risk their lives and well being keeping all of us safe and secure.

Please note below, the guidelines for the site...

Thank you,

Blessings,

David Ebel

Emergency and Disaster Responders Support Site

Welcome! This is a site for responders by responders feel free to join in... we are glad you made it!

It is easy to join, and once you have joined ... it is very easy to chat, post, discuss, have fun or just compare stories. Add yourself to the member map..see where other responders live.

If you are concerned with confidentiality, you can join as a famous person in history and add their picture. If you need to discuss private things...just click on the send a message on anyones page. That is private e mail with all e mail addresses hidden. If you later want to change your mind...it will be easy to "become yourself" later.

This is your place..Come, make yourselves at home. Post responder pictures or videos. We have a great selection of groups and forums for you to choose from. If you don't see the one you need... add it.

When life is good, play the video games, make friends and have fun. But, when the bad call comes, we are here ... come, vent, debrief, seek confidential help from trained CISM peers, and if necessary, we even have some friends that are professional counselors and clinicians ... there will be someone who can listen and help you make sense out of what is going on in your life.

This is your place...come and make it your own then invite your friends.
