Camillian Disaster Service Usa company information, Employees & Contact Information

Camillian Disaster Service USA (CADIS USA) fulfills in our day the high ideals and original charism which so moved St. Camillus de Lellis to found our order in 1582. Through its disaster relief efforts, our organization witnesses to the merciful love of Jesus by serving the pastoral, medical, psychological and humanitarian needs of those affected by natural and man-made disasters. These victims most often are those who are most vulnerable: the poor, children and the elderly. Located in Milwaukee, WI, CADIS USA is the United States branch of Camillian Disaster Service International (CADIS) - the global disaster relief network of the Catholic Order of the Ministers of the Infirm (Order of St. Camillus). This network includes religious members as well as lay men and women who are healthcare workers (doctors, nurses, dentists, midwives, community health workers, pharmacists); pastoral care agents (trauma and HIV counselors; those who visit the sick; chaplains); students, translators and other people committed to providing humanitarian support (food, clothing, logistics). CADIS also partners with the local diocese and parishes, the local government, NGOs and other humanitarian organizations, as well as the local community in which the project resides. By making these partnerships a priority, we believe that positive outcomes for our projects are increased and the results are better sustained by the community once the project is complete. Grounded in the love and mercy of Jesus, with St. Camillus in our hearts, we promote and inspire the development of community-based integral health programs for the well-being of disaster-stricken communities through compassionate, competent and coordinated interventions.
