INTERFAITH SUPPORT NETWORK
Serving all Santa Clara County
The Interfaith Support Network provides a communication platform for faith-based organizations to share information and resources to support spiritual and emotional well-being throughout the disaster cycle and facilitate collaboration with other service providers (food pantries, warming/cooling centers, unhoused support, etc.).
CADRE is developing an Emotional & Spiritual Care Committee to compliment this network that will be project focused. More information coming soon

OVERVIEW OF CADRE’S SUPPORT NETWORKS:
The Faith & Spiritual Care Network is one of 20 networks CADRE is developing to facilitate communication for nongovernmental organizations in Santa Clara County throughout the disaster cycle. These networks are broken up by different community services and functions to allow for more focused communication. The networks are designed to give organizations a way to quickly find and share information, collaborate, and communicate, before, during, and after disaster. Fill out the short Network Sign Up Form to ensure that you are included in updates about the networks you are interested in joining.
NETWORK UPDATES:
The Faith & Spiritual Care Network is in the early stages of development. Any updates to the network will be noted here.
COMMUNICATION TOOLS:
1.) Webpage – This webpage and the forms, lists, and map within it will be updated regularly and used for continuous network coordination and information sharing during disasters.
2.) Live Chat – As the network develops, they will decide upon a live chat platform for communication during disaster. This live chat platform will provide major disaster announcements, urgent updates and requests, and welfare checks on organizations to quickly understand disaster impacts and immediate needs.
3.) Meetings – The Faith & Spiritual Care Support network is still developing their regular meeting schedule; it will be posted here as soon as it is decided upon. During disasters, meetings will be expanded at the network leadership’s discretion and by request.
4.) Back up methods of communication may include emails, phone and in person meetings, and utilization of Ham Radio and/or information centers in the case of technological challenges during an emergency. These backups are still being developed and decided upon.
