Do you or do you know someone who may find it difficult getting to safety in the event of an emergency? Sign up to be Register Ready today.

The Eatontown Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) has linked arms with the Monmouth County and State of NJ Office of Emergency Management (OEM) to encourage residents to sign up for New Jersey’s Special Needs Registry for Disasters.

The program, called Register Ready gives NJ residents with accessibility and/or medical needs the opportunity to provide emergency response agencies with information to enable better planning in case of a disaster or other emergency.

Register Ready is a free, voluntary and confidential web-based program designed to identify any resident who may need assistance in the event of an emergency. If you or someone you know will find it difficult to get to safety in the event of an emergency, please register at NJ Register Ready.

Please be complete as possible in your responses so emergency personnel can be best prepared to assist you. This information is held securely and is confidential and will only be used for emergency response and planning. The information is not available to the public.

You can also call 2-1-1 (New Jersey’s information line) and tell the NJ Customer Service Representative you want to join Register Ready – New Jersey’s Special Needs Registry for Disasters. The NJ Customer Service Representative will assist them with the process.
