Lane County Community Organizations Active in Disaster (COAD)
Lane County COAD is Standing By
What We Do
The mission of Lane County Community Organizations Active in Disaster (COAD) is to bring together a broad array of community organizations to foster an effective response to the people of Lane County in times of disaster. The Lane County COAD strives to include organizations within their membership that provide emergency support as part of their mission. The COAD’s working relationships are achieved through the promotion of cooperation, communication, coordination, and collaboration of member organizations.
Cooperation
No member organization has all of the answers for the challenges communities face. Members treat each other as partners.
Communication
Members regularly share their capacities, accomplishments, and commitments. The COAD maintains good channels for sharing information, listening carefully to each other, and dealing openly with concerns.
Coordination
COAD members work together towards the goal of effective service to the community. The COAD will equip members to be coordinated in times of disaster through planning and preparation.
Collaboration
COAD members dedicate themselves to working together. The COAD exists to coordinate member organizations’ activities in relation to emergency response.
