I have been going to my local Chapter and volunteering 1 or 2 days a week to support our "Red Cross" in their efforts to help people in need. I felt the need to be learned, so I have been taking several courses and getting certified in those areas. This will give me an advantage, when attempting to handling situations that will arise during a disaster. I haven't taken all the courses needed to handle in house sheltering, nor have I filed a up to date health form. This keeps me a at disadvantage, and limited to the amount of help I can give.
