Following the recent tornado disaster in Windsor, Colorado, The Colorado Churches of Scientology Disaster Response (CSDR) team was deployed to Windsor to assist the residents of nearly 600 homes that were destroyed in the storm.

The team provided water, ice and snacks to over a thousand residents and relief workers in the devastated area and hosted an interfaith community cook-out-feeding 350 residents on what would have been their Memorial Day weekend.

The disaster response team was staffed with Scientology Volunteer Ministers, some of whom are C.E.R.T. (Citizen Emergency Response Training) trained or have assisted in other U.S. disasters including the Greensburg, Kansas tornado and Hurricane Katrina. They also provided Assists, simple techniques developed by Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard, to help people face the challenges of loss.

For more than twenty-five years Churches of Scientology Disaster Response has brought relief to those devastated by earthquakes, tornados, floods, hurricanes, wild fires etc. CSDR is a member of National Voluntary Organizations Active in Disaster. For situations limited to local areas, local Volunteer Ministers provide assistance. The Volunteer Ministers are trained in nineteen areas to help victims of disaster. In the event of larger disaster, volunteers from other areas are mobilized to provide additional personnel.
