Catholic Charities of Acadiana is planning a disaster volunteer training day.
The training is set for Saturday, August 31 at St. Pius X Catholic Church on Kaliste Saloom.
The training is open to all individuals interested. No prior experience is necessary; just a willingness to learn and help others.

- Conducting disaster assessments
- Mucking and gutting homes affected by flooding
- Applying tarps to protect structures from further damage
