Disasters & Religions App

The Disasters & Religion App helps disaster responders better serve America’s diverse religious communities and build partnerships with religious leaders, with easily accessible religious literacy and competency information on 27 unique religions. It was created by the National Disaster Interfaiths Network (NDIN), New York Disaster Interfaith Services (NYDIS), and the University of Southern California Center for Religion and Civic Culture (CRCC).

LAEPF Board Member Brie Loskota is the Executive Director of the Center for Religion and Civic Culture (CRCC) at the University of Southern California.
