Disaster Registry - Registration Now Open!

For vulnerable seniors and persons with disabilities 

The Anchorage disaster registry allows vulnerable seniors and persons with disabilities to pre-register with Office of Emergency Management. The Disaster Registry program maintains a listing of all registrants to provide information to emergency responders after a disaster. The registry contains information provided voluntarily such as the person's name, address and reason for registering.

After a large incident, such as an earthquake, city resources will be deployed immediately to deal with known life threatening events such as structural fires and building collapse. As resources become available later in the course of the disaster event, rescue and assistance resources will be organized.

Because resources are limited, registration does not guarantee timely response. Registering should be done along with other preparedness activities. All citizens are encouraged to be self-sufficient for at least 5 to 7 days with supplies including food, water and medications and under the assumption that all public utilities will not be available.

Persons with special medical conditions are encouraged to fill out an Emergency Medical Information Form and to post it on their refrigerator so responders can provide accurate care in day-to-day emergencies or a community-wide disasters.
