Register Yourself as Safe & Well

Posted on March 27th, 2009 by Wendy Harman

List yourself or a loved one as Safe & Well

We urge all those who have evacuated or who expect to evacuate to register on the Red Cross Safe and Well website.

  • This tool allows people in disaster-affected areas to register their well-being using several pre-scripted messages. Family and friends can then log on and search for registered individuals to learn of their whereabouts and safety. People without access to a computer or without electricity or connectivity can call the Red Cross (1-800-REDCROSS) for help registering, or contact a loved one to register on their behalf.
  • Please note that the Safe and Well site safeguards the privacy of the disaster victim. Although these messages will be viewable by friends or family members who conduct a successful search, the site does not reveal a specific location or contact information.
