4. (GC) Pack an ADRA box, using the proper procedures for contents, method of packing, and labeling of the box.

You contact your local ADRA office or Country Director for assistance with training in this and other services your local group can provide for ADRA projects.

4. (recommended for NAD) Pack an ACS DR box, using the proper procedures for content, method of packing, and numbering of the box, so that it is Distribution Center ready.

Note the North American Division has determined that they will not offer this Honor.

Contact your local conference ACS Disaster Response Coordinator, your Union Disaster Response Coordinator, or NAD ACS for further assistance and training in packing a Disaster Response box. As of August 2006 Pacific Union is very proactive in training and can offer material, contacts and assistance if you contact them.
