Wisconsin Emergency Assistance Volunteer Registry (WEAVR)

volunteers interested in filling critical response and recovery roles following a major public health emergency.

Based on the information collected from each volunteer, public health officials are able to identify those individuals willing to fill the specific volunteer roles needed in an emergency.  Public health officials will use the WEAVR registry to generate a list of volunteers who will be contacted based on the information they provided.  Those contacted will be given information on where to report and the role that is needed, as well as the option to accept or decline the opportunity. Training will be provided at the reporting site. 

It is important to remember that:

1. WEAVR membership and volunteer activities are in addition to any professional or volunteer commitments you may have already established.
2. You are the only person able to change the contact information provided.  Please make any changes to the data fields in the WEAVR system as soon as they occur.

Registration Information

The WEAVR system and its associated processes are owned and managed by the Wisconsin Division of Public Health.  WEAVR is a secure, password-protected, Web-based application that requires all users to have a Wisconsin User ID. The information will be kept confidential except for official use in an emergency event.  If you already have a Wisconsin User ID, and use the Wisconsin Health Alert Network and would like to register as a volunteer, go to https://www.han.wisc.edu/ and select the "log in" tab to enter the HAN.    Once you are logged onto the HAN with your user id and password, go to "My HAN" option.   From that page, you will find an option to update your WEAVR participation information--it should appear as:  "Wisconsin Emergency Assistance Volunteer Registry--Update your WEAVR participation information."

If you do not have a Wisconsin User ID, please complete the following 2 step process. 

Step 1

WEAVR is accessible via the Wisconsin Health Alert Network (HAN).  If you have never used the HAN before, and in order to log on to WEAVR, you must have an active Wisconsin User ID.  Visit the Web Access Management System to Obtain your Wisconsin User ID (Account).  After you have obtained your Wisconsin User ID, return to this page and go to step 2.

Step 2

To register with WEAVR you will need to use your Wisconsin User ID and password to log-on to the Wisconsin Health Alert Network (on that page, select the "log-in" tab).  Once you have signed on to the Health Alert Network, complete the registration process which will include the option of participating in WEAVR. During registration for the Health Alert Network, when prompted to select an organization, if there is no organization that best matches your situation, please select "WEAVR - Wisconsin Emergency Assistance Volunteer Registry" as your organization.
