Latest Disaster Response

Disaster Safe and Well Website Registration

The American Red Cross encourages individual and families to register themselves on the Safe and Well Website by clicking on the banner link at the top. The Safe and Well Website is an Internet-based tool that allows those directly affected by a disaster to let their loved ones know of their well-being. People within the disaster-affected area are able to select and post standard "safe and well" messages. Concerned family members who know the person's current phone number or a complete home address can search for the posted messages.

HURRICANE EARL Update:
The American Red Cross is on alert and increasing its preparations for Hurricane Earl, as this category 4 storm gains strength in the Atlantic Ocean and heads up the East Coast. We will continue to track the storm and update this site with information about how the Red Cross is helping people impacted by Hurricane Earl.
