All are welcome in Red Cross shelters and cooling centers. At this time, we are only able to accommodate service animals. We encourage people who plan to stay in a Red Cross shelter to bring prescription medications, extra clothing, pillows, blankets, hygiene supplies, other comfort items and important documents. Don't forget to bring any special items for children, such as diapers, formula and toys, or for family members who have unique needs. Red Cross disaster workers can also assist people who need to replace medications or have other health needs. If you need assistance and cannot get to a shelter, call 1-800-RED CROSS. If you have a life-threatening emergency, call 911.
