Communities Open Warming Centers for Those in Need During Winter Storm
Texas Division of Emergency Management • February 18, 2021
Due to snow, freezing rain, and ice, many East Texans have been left with no water or power.
The Texas Division of Emergency Management
has developed a list of warming centers available at locations across the state to help.
The National Guard is deployed across Texas to conduct welfare checks and assist local authorities in helping those in need find a local warming station.
To find the closest warming shelter, please use the map below, or for information on additional assistance and resources, call 2-1-1.
Assistance is available to find and compare 2025 health and drug plans now
We can't wait to host hundreds of area nursing facility administrators, practitioners, caregivers, and others who work with seniors at our 33rd annual REACH Conference (Regional Education on Aging, Caregiving, and Healthcare) next month! The Area Agency on Aging (AAA) hosts the annual conference to provide educational workshops, plenary sessions, and networking opportunities. This year's conference will be held at Maude Cobb in Longview on October 2-3 and is ideal for professionals or caregivers serving older adults and persons with disabilities.
