RESOURCES OPENED IN RESPONSE TO WINTER WEATHER
Code Blue notifications and resources opened in response to severe cold or storm
events change as quickly as the weather. This listing reflects information most recently
received but you should always call ahead to confirm that the locations noted are still
available.
Offices of Emergency Management
The NJ Office of Emergency Management [http://www.ready.nj.gov/about/association.html] has links to all
County Offices of Emergency Management.
County Websites and Alert Notification Systems
In storm emergencies it is customary that county government will make an effort to alert their residents by
posting information on their county website. Here you will find alert notifications, information about how to
sign up to receive email notifications during times of emergency events and announcements about
government closings. In the county listing that follows we have provided the most current notifications we
know of as well as a link to the county website so that you can avail yourself of further information.
How Code Blue Works
When temperatures drop below freezing, and conditions pose a threat to individuals who are homeless or
medically fragile, a network of agencies throughout New Jersey helps people obtain shelter, food and
clothing.
During times such as these, county or municipal government will often initiate a Code Blue Alert which
enables authorities to take homeless adults to shelter programs that have agreed to make additional beds
available. Warming Centers are also opened during stated hours to provide residents with a place that they
can go to warm up.
County Offices of Emergency Management together with county government will communicate Code Blue
Alerts and the opening of Warming Centers through local media and social media outlets. Often this
information is also posted on municipal and county websites. Additionally, many counties have started
sharing this information with NJ 2-1-1. As we hear of locations that are available when a Code Blue Alert is
activated, we will post the information here.
A Homeless Hotline for each county is also provided as a resource for assistance for those who are
homeless. To find additional resources (beyond what is noted below) in your area, search our resource
database using the search term: emergency shelter. To get further details on a county’s homeless hotline
and shelter, search using the term: emergency shelter clearinghouses. Learn more about housing
alternatives in New Jersey by reading our housing resource pages.
