This training is being presented by New York Disaster Interfaith Services (NYDIS) and is intended to teach New York City DCM Supervisors and DCMs how to present cases to the NYC Sandy Unmet Needs Roundtable.  The Roundtable is a source of cash assistance, food and clothing vouchers, appliances, furniture, and building supplies – for those impacted by Sandy and regardless of immigration status. This training is open to any disaster case manager from any agency. This training is required before a DCM can apply to the Roundtable on behalf of their client’s unmet needs.
