Mutual Assistance

History organizations can face a variety of disasters– from damp walls creating mold in your collection, to a fire raging through your building with people inside. 

The first step to being prepared for the unthinkable is creating an Emergency & Disaster Response Plan. As part of your plan, count on the support of your peers through MALHM's Mutual Assistance program!

Mutual Assistance Line

Need some help? Call the Mutual Assistance Line at (612) 208-3150! Volunteers on the MALHM Mutual Assistance Team can help find the supplies, equipment, and volunteers you'll need to respond to your disaster.
