People with special needs

The Canadian Red Cross recommends that you prepare yourself and your family for at least 72 hours in the event of an emergency or disaster. If you or your loved ones have any special needs that would require extra assistance, you should work those details into your family emergency plan. This could also include checking in on neighbours who may require assistance during an emergency. The following guides have excellent information for people with special needs, disabilities, or who may need some extra help during a disaster.

 

You Make the Difference – Support Canadians Affected by Disasters
From house fires to forest fires, hurricanes to floods, the Canadian Red Cross is there for more than 20,000 Canadians who are affected by disasters each year. Please donate to the Canadian Red Cross Fund.
