Animal Rescue Corner: Vermont Disaster Animal Response Team

Vermont Disaster Animal Response Team logo
The Vermont Disaster Animal Response Team (VDART) was established to strengthen and support the state’s capacity to respond to animal needs in the event of a disaster. They provide vital resources and advice to pet owners, animal-related businesses and non-profits, local communities, and state agencies in the area.
 
What they do:
  • Provide or sponsor training in Emergency Animal Sheltering and other disaster-related topics to interested volunteers.
  • Develop and support a network of Regional Disaster Animal Response Teams across the state to assist local communities with their pet sheltering needs following a disaster.
  • Provide standard operating procedures and standardized forms for local and regional emergency pet sheltering needs.
  • Educate the public, volunteers and responders on the importance of planning for and responding to animal needs in disasters.
  • Deploy a fully equipped Companion Animal Mobile Equipment Trailer (CAMET) that includes cages and other necessities to supply an emergency animal shelter in the event of a disaster.
  • Assist municipalities with the incorporation of pets into their own local Emergency Operations Plans.
