Emergency Shelters

Shelter locations and opening times are specific to each storm and will be posted on the Brevard County Emergency Management website.

Brevard County will have general population, pet-friendly, and special needs shelters available across the county.

For a list of what to bring to a shelter, see Preparing to Go to a Shelter.  

Special Needs Shelters

Registration is required for special needs shelters. Special needs shelters are specifically assigned to clients so that there are enough supplies and medical professionals to help assist caregivers. If your medical equipment requires electricity, you have serious health issues, and/or you have a caregiver, and you have no other option for safe shelter, please visit Brevard County's Emergency Preparedness Plans for Individuals with Special Needs webpage for more information and to register.
