Missing Loved Ones

Safe & Well is designed to help family and friends know that one another is "safe and well" after a disaster. Concerned family and friends can search a list of those who have registered themselves. Likewise, letting your family and friends know that you are also safe and well can bring your loved ones great peace of mind.
