Disasters don’t wait until your schedule clears. They hit when they hit—on a Tuesday night, in the middle of a soccer game, or halfway through dinner. When that moment shows up, the last thing you need is to start guessing. You want to move. Fast, calm, clear. And if you’ve got animals, you better believe they’re watching your every move and following your lead—unless you’ve made zero plan for them. That’s where things break down.

Emergency Animal Shelter App (EASA) Validated By VDART
DART Command Central's EASA, a mobile app that helps communities prepare for disasters and manage temporary emergency pet shelters, is pleased to announce $15,000 in funding provided by Vermont Disaster Animal Response Team (VDART).
Six volunteers with the Central Vermont DART stood up a pet-friendly shelter in cooperation with the American Red Cross at the Barre Auditorium July 10. Using the beta version of DARTCC's Shelter Module, they have been able to focus on the care of the pets and not the paperwork.
We are thrilled to be the recipient of a $5,000 grant from State Farm in 2023. DARTCC was able to use the funding from last year to create the beta version of the Shelter Module. We could not have developed this beta version with out the funding from State Farm.
