Joint Emergency Evacuation Program (JEEP) |

AUGUST 2010
For Your Information from…Suffolk County Executive Steve Levy’s Office of Handicapped Services
Frank Krotschinsky, Director
Joint Emergency Evacuation Program (JEEP) for Persons with Special Needs
When a disaster strikes, shelter and transportation assistance is available to eligible disabled individuals who have no other way to evacuate their homes. In the event of a natural or man-made disaster, the Department of Fire, Rescue and Emergency Services (FRES) will coordinate assistance to eligible disabled residents. If you are at risk during emergency situations and require special planning, which may involve transportation and/or sheltering, the Joint Emergency Evacuation Plan (JEEP) may be of assistance.
How JEEP Works
JEEP is a database of individuals who require emergency evacuation assistance during disasters. The database is maintained by FRES and activated prior to an impending disaster. To be eligible for this program, you must be so disabled or frail that you are unable to leave your residence without emergency assistance. You must apply ahead of time to be included. The information you provide will be reviewed to see if you meet the eligibility requirements, and will be kept confidential. If you are approved, you will be assigned to an appropriate shelter.
How Do I Apply For Jeep?
If you are interested, you can get a JEEP application by calling the Department of Fire, Rescue and Emergency Services at (631) 852-4900 or the Office of Handicapped Services at (631) 853-8333 (voice), (631) 853-5658 (TTY). When an application is reviewed, JEEP’s program managers will determine which services you will need. Your determination will be based on your medical and transportation needs as well as your lack of other evacuation options. If you need assistance filling out the form, try to find someone who can help you. If you do not have anyone to help you please contact the Office of Handicapped Services at the above listed numbers.
For more information, or to download a JEEP application, go to In the Spotlight on Suffolk County’s home page, www.suffolkcountyny.gov

The following message comes to us from Inspector Robert Oswald, Commanding Officer of the 6th Precinct.
As of today, we now have a secure "mailbox" in the Precinct lobby to accept prescription drugs that are no longer needed by the public. Put them in a Ziploc bag, and drop them in. No paperwork or identification procedure necessary. Available 24/7. NO NEEDLES OR LIQUIDS is the only restriction. Advise your members and encourage them to get the unused Rx's out of the house, particularly pain killers.

Landscaping of the Entranceways and Gazebo |
|
Thursday, 05 August 2010 18:30 |

The Advisory Board is negotiating with Herman Brothers, our Landscaper, to install a new landscape design for the Entranceways and Gazebo area. These areas are in sore need of some updating and maintenance. The design will not only include new plantings, but lighting for the walls as well. Quotes are coming in and costs will ultimately determine the final scope of the project. The Board is hopeful the project may be completed before the end of the year.
Thanks go out to Advisory Board members Armin Olivieri and Steven Amato for their persistence in moving this project along. Special thanks goes out to our Town of Brookhaven Liaison Bob Borrusso for his assistance in getting the process moving within Town Hall. |
