Emergency Services/ Services to Armed Forces

This program's focus is on meeting people’s immediate and basic emergency needs. The Red Cross provides shelter, food, clothing, and rental assistance to address basic human needs.  Emergency services to military families include emergency communications during illness, death or other family crisis, financial assistance to military personnel, and counseling and referrals to soldiers and their families.  We provide ongoing instruction to prepare for emerging disasters before they happen, to minimize loss of property and life in Gregg County.
