If you're going to train an effective group, for Emergency Response, they're going to need a need, for regular practice. The problem with Militia, is that they don't give much thought, to how to address Confusion, until the actual confusion hits. I think you'll need regular meetings, of disaster gaming, driven by a ministry unto those who haven't handled their disasters well. I'd suggest a balanced program, of a battered women's shelter, and also a Dog-House, perhaps in concert with AA. I'm planning a divination of marital philosophy, and a harmonizing of Bachelor Quarters and battered marriage hospices, would be a good ministry by which to keep marriages togeather, and a good context for a stirring cauldron. Some sort of ministry unto Birth Community, Contractural Obligation, the Brotherhood of Man, and of Evolutionary Influences, should provide a grounding for your Muggles Annonymous, and for a circle of Spade-Besoms, by which to strengthen their handles on Man and Earth.
Johnny Appleseed was a Swedenborgian, and was probably on the Aesyr Side, of the Ocean of Milk War, while Clara Barton seems more in line with the Ass of Devas, St. Gabriel. These two would have had great spiritial benefit, for their ministries, although likely incomplete. Clara had a Masonic Connection, as well as to Anubis, which'll open some funding, for a competant buisiness plan, but you're going to have to play well with others.
Spade Besom, for your deployables, would give them a handle onto the World, as well as a magic to touch upon the Earth, and to clean up after. Cerredwen's Cauldron is done bare handed, so growth rate wouldn't be a problem for Children. Sangraal is more sedentary, and for inclusion of the injured and arthritic. Each person leading in Mimicry, until the cauldron stirs to a boil, will benefit by whatever ministry is done, and will eventually overcome all challenges of Credit.
