Why do people volunteer? -- Who manages disaster volunteers? Why manage volunteers? -- What to expect with volunteers -- Recruiting and training disaster volunteers -- Managing spontaneous unaffiliated volunteers -- Affiliated disaster volunteers -- Managing international volunteers -- The benefits of volunteering -- The future of disaster volunteerism.

Volunteer work can make a difference to those harmed by natural, technological, and human-induced disasters if it is done well. Disaster Volunteers provides readers with information on why people volunteer, the benefits gained by volunteers and recipients, and how to leverage such good will. Learning from a variety of past disasters, readers will gain realistic insights into the challenges of disaster contexts. Equipped with evidence-based best practices, Dr. Phillips organizes and illustrates necessary steps to recruit, train, manage, reward, and retain volunteers throughout the life cycle of disasters.
