As another hurricane season is upon us, keep yourself and your loved ones safe after the storm by following the CDC’s Safety Guidelines.
A disaster can strike at any time – sometimes without warning. It is important for every Floridian, especially citizens with physical challenges and other special needs, to plan ahead for an emergency situation and know what to do in the event of an emergency.
We offer resources and information specifically tailored for people with disabilities/special needs and their families to help prepare for emergencies, protect themselves, and be survivors.
Florida residents should be stay informed and have family disaster plan in case emergency strikes.
Special Needs Registry
Special needs shelters are for those with disabilities or who require medical care that exceeds basic first aid. Preregistration is important so emergency responders can ensure space is reserved for those with the greatest need.
