Go to the link above to find RED CROSS sponsored shelters. (there are usually MANY MORE shelters other than "Red Cross sponsored" shelters...run by local gov't, run by private groups)
[Editor's NOTE: we've noticed lately that the link DOES NOT WORK for people who don't allow cookies and other surveillance apps on their devices. The Red Cross is a great org, providing badly needed first response. However, we do not like that the link doesn't work on ANY device, and fear that this is a trend that's related to the "need" for large non-profits to gather a ton of personal info before they will help you. If that's the case, shame on you Red Cross. If it's not the case, please excuse our ignorance]
See the map at the link for open shelters. Below that is a list of openshelters.
You can also search by state/address.
Open Shelters are flagged. Put your mouse over a flag to get more info, click on it, and give it a moment and you'll see the address of the shelter and a capacity (number of people), if the information is available.
Here's the old address, that doesn't work as well, but for reference purposes: http://app.redcross.org/nss-app/
