In the aftermath of Hurricane Dean, the Adventist Development and Relief Agency (ADRA) has been actively involved in ensuring that assistance is given to those affected.

"We have activated all our response systems and have been in touch with our local and international partners, several of whom have made commitment to sending relief supplies in the shortest possible time," said Pastor Desmond Robinson, director of ADRA. "ADRA remains committed to helping our nation and in particular those who are most deprived in the aftermath of the hurricane regardless of race, religion, ethnicity, sex or political preference. In light of this, we have deployed our personnel throughout the island to act on our behalf."

ADRA has been, and is currently, distributing tarpaulin and water to affected areas and is also in the process of completing a needs analysis and assessment of damage done by the hurricane.
