NYDIS works primarily in two distinct yet closely connected arenas. First, we build the capacity and strengthen the resources of faith-based agencies providing secular disaster human services. Second, by coordinating the disaster services of faith-based and other organizations, NYDIS and its members seek to mitigate human suffering caused by catastrophes and serve the most vulnerable and under-resourced households and communities affected by disaster.
