ESRA with Access Israel and the Purple Vest Mission is making sure no one is left behind. In times of crisis, people with disabilities, the elderly, and others in need may struggle to evacuate or access help. The Purple Vest Mission was created to ensure that no one faces emergencies alone. Now, ESRA is partnering with Access Israel to train English-speaking volunteers to offer critical assistance and support during emergencies. Whether it’s helping someone evacuate safely or offering calm, clear guidance in English, your support can make all the difference. Be the reason someone feels seen, safe, and supported.
Please note:
- Training is mandatory.
- Only those who attend the entire Zoom session will be eligible to become ESRA Purple Vest Volunteers.
- The group is limited to 50 participants, so please register only if you can fully commit to the session.
Please also note that this field-based volunteer program is designed for individuals in good physical health. If this is not suitable for you, we’d still love for you to be part of the initiative! There are additional support roles that may be a better fit. Feel free to reach out to me so we can find the right way for you to contribute.
We look forward to seeing you on Monday as we launch this meaningful new initiative together!
