On Sunday, October 28 Governor Chris Christie held a press briefing and declared a state of emergency in the state of New Jersey. During the news conference he urged New Jersey residents to visit the website of the NJ 2-1-1 Partnership if in need of shelter.
To prepare for Hurricane Sandy, as much as is possible, you may find the following websites to be helpful:
- NJ 2-1-1 Hurricane Response and Recovery
- NJ Office of Emergency Management (OEM) website
- American Red Cross Hurricane App
- Ready.gov
Many of New Jersey’s 21 counties have emergency notification systems. Links to county government websites are available here.
Be cautious. Be safe.
