Cape Cod Disaster Animal Response Team
About Us
Cape Cod Disaster Animal Response Team (CC DART) was established on July 7, 2008. CC DART is a standalone, nonprofit, tax exempt corporation created to support Barnstable County's response to the Federal Pets Act of 2006, which requires states to plan for the evacuation of pets (animals as well as people) during disasters – in order to qualify for FEMA reimbursement.
Our vision is shared by Barnstable Country Regional Emergency Planners to provide an organized response to animals in disaster. To that extent, we are constantly training and working to coordinate resources both locally (town) and countywide.
CCDART is partnered with American Red Cross, Barnstable County Citizens Corp, BREPC and also an ever increasing number of police and fire departments, nonprofit organizations, and volunteers.
In order for us to continue with our mission, we need your help – your time, finanicial support, and material goods. together we can help secure the safety of all the pets in Barnstable County.
