We are seeking volunteers to identify the many local/community-based organizations responding on the ground so we can improve post-disaster "how to help" lists so more funds reach these local nonprofits.
This is what our SmartResponse.org platform does.
To-date, we have over 900 organizations from 70+ countries and 25 U.S. states and territories registered but our LA County and California list is lacking. Help us fix that!

About Disaster Accountability Project
Location:
4402 Bestor Dr, Rockville, MD 20853, US
Mission Statement
Disaster Accountability Project saves lives and reduces suffering by maximizing the effectiveness, efficiency, and equity of disaster preparedness, response, relief, and recovery through oversight, transparency, advocacy, and public education.
Description
DAP is the leading nonprofit organization that provides long-term independent oversight of disaster management systems.
DAP engages a dedicated community to advance policy research and advocacy, promote transparency, and encourage the public to participate in oversight, community-based organizing, and discussions about disaster preparedness and relief.
Dedicated citizen oversight is necessary to ensure resources dedicated to preparedness, relief, and recovery are effectively utilized, communities are sufficiently engaged and more resilient, and best practices and lessons learned are implemented so mistakes are not repeated.
Prior to the creation of the Disaster Accountability Project (DAP), there was no dedicated, independent oversight of the agencies and organizations responsible for these critical life-saving responsibilities.
