What is Sheltering?
Emergency management sheltering provides life-sustaining services in a safe, sanitary, and secure environment for survivors affected by disasters and people who evacuate before disaster strikes.
The accessible facilities provide comfort, food, water, information, and sleeping accommodations to meet the immediate disaster-caused needs of individuals, families, and communities. Core services are provided in every shelter, and situational services are provided based on the client's needs.
Our tools assist emergency management in providing sheltering operations.
