Our Vision is to Serve Christ by establishing a church network within Greater Austin that will meet the emotional, physical, and spiritual needs of those affected by disaster.  We will accomplish this vision by building a communication infrastructure within churches, ministries and businesses, to enable and empower the body of Christ to organize, mobilize, connect, and respond quickly in the event of a disaster, great or small.

The goals of ADRN are to:

• Build a communication infrastructure
among local churches, ministries and
businesses that will enable and empower
the Body of Christ to adopt and provide for the physical, emotional and spiritual needs
of families affected by disaster.

• Organize resources needed in
times of disaster.

• Collaborate with the City of Austin, Red
Cross, FEMA and all other disaster relief
organizations.

• To provide CASHP, FEMA and Red Cross
training to equip and prepare volunteers
within each participating organization
within the network.

• For the Body of Christ to be prepared before the next disaster strikes.
