Disaster Management – Relief Support

Jamaica has begun its relief, recovery, and rebuilding efforts following Hurricane Melissa's impact across the country. We have boots on the ground, and our emergency response teams are working around the clock to restore operations on the island to normalcy. We’re talking about relief operations, search and rescue missions, logistics coordination, and securing high-risk areas.

Government-approved shelters are clean and safe spaces for temporary accommodation for persons seeking a safer alternative to their homes during a disaster.

Communication is a critical element in disaster preparedness and emergency management, to keep citizens up to date with what is happening prior, during and after a disaster. In an emergency, every second counts. Save and share these important contact numbers with your family and friends.
