The New Orleans Rebirth Volunteer Program:
Allows volunteers to stand in solidarity with the people of the Gulf Coast for a just and equitable recovery. The volunteer program grew out of hurricane relief and social justice project created to respond to the great need of the region in the immediate aftermath of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. Working with community partners, the program connects volunteers with opportunities to address the needs of those affected by Katrina in New Orleans and the Gulf Coast Region. There are several key components of the program designed to help volunteers understand the context in which they are working, to process their experience, and to be effective witnesses to the need for continued assistance and recovery. Most groups are housed in the 50 bed Volunteer Center on the second floor of the First Unitarian Universalist Church of New Orleans. Vermonters have been and will continue to be active participants in this worthy program.
