Welcome to Red Cross Media Alerts
This is a public website, designed to allow Red Cross staff to push information as quickly as possible during emergencies and disasters.
This page will maintain a running log of all alerts, updates, and advisories. The text will remain simple and stripped of code, to allow for "cut-and-paste" when needed. As needed, you will also see audio files you may use as you see fit for broadcast. (Eventually, we'll have downloadable headshots available for graphics and art.)
On the right, you'll find links to the local and national Red Cross websites, as well as a local contact menu. We'll do our best to designate who is on call or unavailable at a given time.
If you have any suggestions, please feel free to pass them on. Consider this a public resource, and use it often.
