ABOUT KS SART
The Kansas State Animal Response Team (KS SART) is a
non-profit, 501(c)(3) organization that began as an initiative
through the Kansas Veterinary Medical Association. KS SART
builds and supports a unifying partnership between governmental,
not-for-profit organizations, the animal industry, and volunteers in
order to facilitate local animal disaster preparedness and
response development.
PREPARE
Being prepared before a disaster happens is the most
important thing you can do. KS SART offers resources
and support for the citizens of Kansas to properly
prepare their entire family, including their pets, for a
disaster.
VOLUNTEER
Building a fullly trained, functional statewide volunteer
base is critical. KS SART provides guideance for
County and Regional Teams to properly recruit
and train their volunteers.
TRAIN
THE NEED
The number one reason people do not
evacuate their homes in an emergency is
because a pet is in the home. Animal
emergencies create danger for animals,
their owners and responders. Lack of
preparation leads to unnecessary tragedy,
human injury and economic loss.
AT WORK
When local disaster response capacity is
exhausted, KS SART assists in multi-agency
disaster response coordination efforts
throughout the state when activated
by the Kansas Animal Health Department,
Kansas Division of Emergency Management,
or local Emergency Management.
KS SART assists local teams in training and
credentialing volunteers, along with building
and maintaining a resource inventory in support
of County and Regional Animal Response Teams.
