Marion County Emergency Shelters
Marion County Public Schools and the Marion County Sheriff’s Office Division of Emergency Management have announces shelter locations. Emergency Management will open multiple shelters hosted by our local public schools.
- General Population Shelters
- Pet-Friendly Shelter
- Special Needs Shelter
Emergency Management officials encourage citizens to bring supplies to the shelters to last them for 24-48 hours, such as clothing, bedding, medications, food, water, etc. If you are bringing your pet(s) to the pet-friendly shelter, they must be caged, and you will be required to provide recent immunization documentation. Please bring whatever supplies are needed for your pets to be self-sufficient, and please pick up after them as well.
For more information about shelter locations, please call the Citizen Information Line at (352) 369-7500 or visit the Marion County Sheriff’s Office Facebook page.
