The "Family Links" site is operated by the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) and is more geared towards international events ocurring outside the US. Still a great tool to keep in our collective toolboxes though! Additionally, the American Red Cross utilizes the "Safe and Well" system - allowing people to register themselves, and loved ones to search for them in the database. Safe and Well may be accessed by computer, smart phone or by calling 1-800-RedCross. It can even update the persons Facebook and Twitter status to help notify more people of their whereabouts. www.redcross.org/safeandwell JoAnn Woody KCMO
