    American Red Cross: Disaster Victim Safe and Well Registry

    https://disastersafe.redcross.org/

    In July, the American Red Cross launched its "Safe and Well" Web site to provide families with a tool to exchange important information with loved ones and friends in the immediate aftermath of a disaster. The site allows a disaster victim to select and post standard messages for friends and family that indicate the victim is safe and well and will make contact when able. Those worried about the safety of a victim can access the site, enter either the name and telephone number or name and complete address of the person in question, and view their "safe and well" messages.
