Disaster Services
The American Red Cross offers free aid to families or individuals who have fallen victim to fires, floods, tornadoes, or any other type of natural disaster. Each year, the American Red Cross responds immediately to more than 67,000 disasters. In these difficult times, we can provide those directly affected with such things as:
- Clothing
- Food
- Temporary Shelter (Motel, etc.)
- Prescription Medication Payment
- Referrals to Other Social Service Agencies
For dozens of other public and private agencies that provide material, support, medical, or psycholical services, please consult our Community Resource Guides for either Scioto or Pike Counties by clicking the links below.
