Bibi, if you have a 211 resource in your area, this would also be a great
resource  to find helpful local information.  Just google 211 and your
county name.  

HTH,
Steve

Hi, all,
I just did a google search for the American Red cross web site and the link
will be below:
http://www.redcross.org
www.redcross.org
I will probably go back later on to look up the contact information and plan
on writing it down in braille as the same one for the CRC web site here in
Colorado.
I am hoping that their web site will be able to have a lot of helpful
resources.
I have yet to finish reading the web site to find out if any of their
shelter policies have been updated.
Last I remember back in 2005, I contacted the Milehigh Denver Red Cross
chapter to ask questions as far as where would people be able to find an
emergency evacuation shelter in situations like disasters like the wild
fires here in the state of Colorado along with one in Wyoming and In New
Mexico.
A Red cross representative informed me that by law, all of their shelters do
have to allow those who do have guide/assistance dogs into their shelters
and the dogs are to be allowed in with their handlers.
Another question I wanted to ask is would the web site owner be able to have
this listed under the resources link?
I figure that would be a good idea so if people should end up in disasterous
situations any time, they will be able to hop on the web site to look it up.
I also came across the Colorado Red Cross web site for Colorado and that
link is:
http://www.coloradoredcross.org
I'm sure for those here in Colorado who are in the paths of the wild fires
such as guide dog teams and others with service dogs would find this handy.
Just thought I'd share.
