Hurricane Preparedness

  • Register for a Special Needs Shelter NOW, if needed, and update annually.
  • Know Your Evacuation Level. Find Your Nearest Shelter NOW, and Map a Route.
  • Have a Plan, and Share It. Pick two places to meet- Plan A and Plan B.(There is a very good chance your cell phone will not work!)
  • Consider What You Will Do With Your Pets. Many hotels and shelters will not accept pets. Research this in advance.
