The homebound, elderly, and disabled residents of our parish have special evacuation needs. Our local government acknowledges this and plans to evacuate these residents first. Please note that "special needs" residents should evacuate with their families whenever possible.

When a local evacuation order is called, parish officials, will notify residents primarily using local media and the Emergency Alert System (EAS). All emergency information, including shelter openings, evacuation routes, and weather conditions will be given through the media. Stay tuned to your local radio and television stations for the latest official advisories, warnings, and bulletins.

If you or one of your family/friends are special needs, Please call the St. Mary Parish OHSEP
office to register.  (337) 828-4100 ext. 135 or 136
