When Hurricane Florence hit the eastern coast of the United States, Presbyterian Disaster Assistance (PDA) and Presbyterian Women (PW) sent out a reminder that September was National Preparedness Month (NPM). Since 2014, through the Presbyterian Women Disaster Preparedness program, PDA and PW have collaborated to assist congregations and presbyteries to create disaster preparedness plans. Today, the program has more than 150 women from 68 presbyteries across the country, including 43 new trainers from the Churchwide Gathering of Presbyterian Women last month in Louisville, Kentucky.
