Applicants will be screened by a member of Craven
County Department of Social Services to ensure those
with special needs are sheltered in the appropriate
facility during an emergency. Those who are found to
have special needs that an American Red Cross shelter
cannot provide will be contacted for further screening.
All information provided on this form is voluntary and
confidential, however, it may be shared with but not
limited to emergency personnel, transportation
services, licensed facilities etc. to facilitate your quick
and safe evacuation.
Due to the time required and limited resources to safely
evacuate people with special needs, the evacuation
process may be executed well in advance of an
impending disaster. You must be ready to evacuate
when told to do so by emergency officials!!
If you have questions or need assistance filling out the
form, please contact Craven County DSS Adult
