Region 7 Disaster Health Response Ecosystem (R7DHRE)
- Disaster Behavioral Health (DBH) responders support crisis response or recovery operations in Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas, and/or Missouri.
- DBH responders may participate in a real-world all-hazard disaster response remotely or in-person. DBH responders are not required to have any formal mental health training or credentials, but they will need to have completed Psychological First Aid (PFA) training prior to conducting real-world DBH activities.
- DBH responders are free to decline a support request at any time.
- Costs of DBH deployment are fully reimbursed through EMAC in declared local, state, and federal emergencies.
- Please direct any questions to Dr. Jerry Walker at [email protected].
