Evacuee Registration

During a major emergency or incident in St. Albert, you may need to evacuate your home and go somewhere safe. During these types of events, a Reception Centre will be activated to provide St. Albertans with essential services such as food, lodging, transportation and personal services.  

  • You do not have to go to the Reception Centre if you have your own arrangements. 
  • IMPORTANT: However, during an incident, ALL evacuated residents are asked to register to ensure you receive situational updates on the incident and information on available services and if applicable, financial supports.

Registration in an Emergency 

  • In-person – You can attend the Emergency Reception Centre to register your family.
  • Online - an online registration option will be made available to evacuees at the time of the incident.

The Reception Centre is companion-animal friendly. We will also provide pet and companion-animal friendly lodging and accommodation, where needed.
