We Can’t Do This Alone

Red Cross Disaster Assistance is provided to address individuals’ immediate emergency needs following a man-made disaster such as a fire, or natural disasters such as hurricanes, tornadoes, floods and more. 

When additional assistance is required, we link clients with partner agencies who provide long-term assistance in the form of food, shelter, clothing, furniture and more.

Florida residents and emergency officials can now receive daily situation reports produced by the Florida Division of Emergency Management online via the worldwide web service YouTube, keywords: “Florida SERT” available at http://www.youtube.com/FloridaSERT. The daily reports are designed to give a quick snapshot of daily operations, statewide weather reports and hazardous conditions that are being monitored by the State Watch Office, the 24 / 7 operations facility for the state of Florida. This product is part of an ongoing initiative by the Division and State Emergency Response Team to incorporate new media resources to better inform Floridians.
