Storm Shelter and Safety Information
As the winter storms are pushing their way through Southeast Oklahoma, the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma has put several safety measures in place.
Significant freezing rain and dropping temperatures over several days may possibly cause major power outages. Several Choctaw Nation Community Centers are preparing to help. Generators have been placed in strategic locations to accommodate the possible opening of shelters if power outages develop. Volunteers are preparing to be on-site to offer assistance.
If schools in your areas are closed, Choctaw administrative offices and clinics are also closed.
If you find yourself in need of a shelter, please call to check if the local center is available.
