The Red Cross is working in coordination with Emergency Managers in Gila County as well as the Type 1 Incident Management Team. Volunteers set up and staffed the shelter at the Payson High School in support of those affected by the Highline Fire. The Red Cross would like to remind everyone to download the Red Cross Emergency app on their personal device. The Emergency app provides real-time and preparedness information, what to do during a fire and other disaster safety information.
