Oppose. The typo is fixed. Section 1 of the bylaws (on its wbite) {{subst:rm says that the organization's name is "National Association for Search and Rescue". Ground Zero | t 02:10, 15 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose as there is no reason to include the acronym in the title, especially in front of the actual name. — Huntster (t @ c) 18:26, 16 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The misspelling of "search" appeared in your original title, too. I have fixed it now. The organization's webpage displays the full name, so there is no reasson not to use it. The acronym NASAR has not entered common usage like NASA. Ground Zero | t 02:06, 15 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
