What is Louisiana VOAD?
Louisiana VOAD is an association of organizations that lead response efforts, communicate urgent needs to the wider National VOAD network, and provide assistance to communities affected by disaster. By adhering to the 4 Cs (Communication, Cooperation, Coordination, and Collaboration), Louisiana VOAD effectively provides relief.
- Cooperation We understand that our common goals for a community can be best achieved by working together, and learning from one another. Therefore, we work toward creating a climate for cooperation at all levels: federal, state, regional, local, and grassroots.
- Communication We promote and facilitate the regular sharing of information about and between our member organizations and partners including their capacities, accomplishments, limitations and commitments.
- Coordination To put our mission and principles in practice, we form strategic partnerships, establishing shared goals and working together to achieve them.
- Collaboration Continue to work together across all levels, from Local VOADs/COADs to Federal agencies, to ensure that communities are made whole following disasters.
